Capturing text from a Word Doc

Hi,

I need to find a way of capturing the text from a Word document, and
storing it. Preferably as a string, as I then need to be able to
manipulate the text in code and display it in my web app.
Please help!

Thanks in advance

You will need to buy a component for all docs before word 2007 (office
automation should not be used on a server), for word 2007 docs are saved in
zip file containing xml with the file ext docx.

Hi, With C#, is it possible to hover a mouse pointer on the Windows UI controls and show the UI text? For example, can I hover my mouse over "File" in the menu bar and show the text "File" on a label? I've seen a program like this but not sure if it can be done with C#. Thanks! TomTom

I am trying to capture the Windows Authenticated username, but I want to be able to capture the login name that exists in IIS, not Windows. In order to enter my company's intranet through the internet, they have to login. I want to be able to capture that login versus their Windows login because I need to know who they are from any computer rather than only their computer. Any ideas? Thanks

Hi I'm trying to fix an expression, to grab all sets of 2 words with a space between them, ie: hello word (valid) C# sample (Valid) hello. world (Invalid) hello world. (invalid) <-- need to stop capture before the "." and cannot use \b since \b includes "#" this is the expression I am trying to work with, so far it takes each word fine seperately, but it does not take into account hello. world and it captured hello world.
