I need to write a windows program in C# that will display a word document on
the screen without having Word loaded on the machine.
How can I do this?
TIA - J.

If you do not have Word installed on the machine, and the program must
be one of your own creation, then you'll have to read the DOC format
and render it just like MS Word or MS Word Viewer does. There is open
source software that you can study (in other languages) to see how it
is done; you can even look at the source code to OpenOffice.org, which,
IIRC, is done in C++.
Would not the free Word Viewer do what you need, though? http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

I will be calling this from a program and my understanding is that when you
use the viewer it automatically opens the document in another window. I want
to be able to have it as part of the window I already have open.

You will need to use a third party component such as Aspose , http://www.aspose.com/, if you want it embeded in your form.

Background: We're having transparency problems (long side story and

or "Color Quality" (bits per pixel) of the display adapter (screen) to
be 16 bits (Called "Medium (16 bit)" in the Display Properties Control

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
