How to embed binary files in Word?

agez

Hi,

I want to embed a number of binary files (pdf, jpg, ...) in a word
file (wordml would be nice).
I've searched a lot on MSDN but didn't find a good documentation to do
this, although I think that I'm not the only one who tries to do this.

Has anyone of you have an idea where to start?

Cheers,
Helmut

I fail to see how this is related to the language C#

This has absolutely nothing to do with C#.

Sorry, I was so much in the topic that I forgot to say that I want to
do this with c#.
Here's the scenario:
There is a product that has normally a (growing) number of documents
(doc, xls, pdf, ...) associated. The description of the product is
just plain text. In the end there should be one document that can be
generated on demand on a server. Embedded documents in word are
normally ole objects. There are ways to create those ole objects with c
++ (this seems to be rather complicated) but I didn't find an api to
do this with c#.

Cheers,
Helmut
