That is the easiest way. Your other option is to open from memory, but you
will have to find a component that will read the raw Binary stream as a Word
doc.

Dear Friends,
In my Asp file I have the binary for a Microsoft Word document that I
read from an email attachement. Does anyone know how I can get the text
out of the binary format?
Do I have to save it as a .doc on the server then open it with
Microsofts OLE?
Thanks for your help,
-Scott
