missing "{", the scope of word is just the statement
following the foreach.

foreach (string word in sentence.Split( ))
{

I got a word document as a stream, and I want to get the text from the word document. But I cant seem to find anything to use for that purpose. The "Microsoft office ?.object" com reference, only include functionality to read from a file (as far as I know). I looked a little on the structure of the document, but it doesnt seem to have any common structures, especially not if you compare from different office versions.

Hello Gurus: I have a validation script (below) that is somehow messed up. If the Name field is blank, I get the alert message, then the browser window goes to a blank document with the word "false" on it. What the ?!?!?! To test, I commented out the 'return false;' code in the second IF block, so now if there is a value in Name then I get the alert message for Email and the page stays put.
