Opening and saving documents in a database

Hello:
I would like to make an application to manage word and pdf documents,
opening and saving them in a sql database.
Is there any way to open a document sending to the winword application a
stream of the document I have in the database? And to save, how can I get a
stream of a word document to save it in a database?

I've been searching for information about this kind of process but I haven´t
found.

Thanks for all your suggestions.

Best regards

I don't know of any way to stream files directly into/out of Word -- you'll
need to save the data to disk and pass the path of the file instead. Then,
once it's saved, read the file back in and save to the db.
