"DOCX Is A Derivate Of RTF Type Embedded Formatting"?
Apr 9, 2010
So I asked a question on this forum [URL]..It will work fine. Study the Graphics class...it already knows how to draw everything, but Windows does not understand PDF files, that's why Adobe Reader is there. FYI, Office understands PDF format, but...you need to own Office to use it.
PDF format is documented, and supported by 3rd party software. RTF is already understood by Windows RichText controls, and DOCX is a derivative of RTF type embedded formatting.My question is about ..... "DOCX is a derivative of RTF type embedded formatting" what does this mean?
Does this mean if I read the docx file (like i would any other file) I can somehow put this in a rich text box and it will have all of the formatting in it? Because I am not seeing how that happens. I am not seeing what I expected. So is there a way to read a docx file and put it into a richtextbox?

I have a text box labled QTY, which feeds the QTY column on a datatable. the table then is ran through a function that takes the data and converts it to a string which my production machine can read. My problem is this, and its probably really simple (these problems usually are) how to i force the user to use a specific type of input on the txtbox so they would have to put the QTY in the format of 01 02 03 etc etc, i have it set to default to 00 but i want to force the user to haver to input 2 chars.

I have some VB .NET software that interfaces to a load of old (but sound) COM objects. The VB provides a GUI for the COM objects, part of which consists of setting various options on the COM objects - several of which relate to string formatting.I have a simple pair of VB .NET functions that convert basic %f, %d, %g formats to/from .NET equivalents using a large select case covering specific common strings, but they don't cover all formats.[code]Before I start diving in and making it more versatile with some parsing, does anyone know of a class (eg VB or C# .NET) that provides a decent ready-made implementation? Or perhaps some regexp wizadry could be used?

I have a WORD document I open programmatically and extract the data from to a string variable. I understand that the X in the DOCX stands for XML. Is there a way to convert my WORD document to an XML type value so that i can then save the information in an XML formatThe output can be a string with XML tags in it or if anyone feels generous and has the code: create a new XML file with everything in itHere is the code i need to upgrade:
Code:
Function ExtractDocText(ByVal strDocPath As String) As String
Dim oApp As Word.Application

I have made a program that opens some word documents but before I release it I want to make sure it opens both .doc and docx. I was assuming this would work:
report.documents.open(Reportpath & "Report.doc*") To no avail I ended in a com error (Hresult).
I must be wrong you cannot put a wildcard in with a string?

ASP.net app inserts Microsoft Windows 2007 .docx file into a row on DB2 OS/390 Blob table. A different VB.net app gets the DB2 OS/390 Blob data. VB.net app kicks off Microsoft Word to open the .docx file but then Microsoft Word pops up a message that the data is corrupted. Word will allow you to fix the data so the file can be viewed but it is extra steps and users complain.I've seen some examples where .docx can be converted to .doc but they only talk about stripping out the text. Some of our .docx have pictures in them.

I am writing an encryption program to become more familiar with MVB (2010). What it does is take each character in a file, convert it into ASCII, perform calculations on the ASCII value and then write to a file. (I change the extension from .docx to .txt, encrypt, decrypt, change extension from .txt to .docx)
The issue that I get is when taking the file from the encrypted state to the original. When I look at the before and after .txt values, they do not match up (I have tested the program on standard text with no issues). After doing a little looking, it seems that the special characters that show up when converting .docx to .txt are not all ASCII characters. Does anyone know anything about this, where to find information about the characters, or anything else?

I've successfully implemented OpenXML that takes the bookmarks within a document and replaces them. Unfortunately it only works with .docx and from what I understand .doc is not compatible with the OpenXML format. So, what I'm wondering is if I can take that WordprocessingDocument and convert it to a .doc when users try and download it.

I am not sure if this is a dumb question or not? Is there a way that we can read a .docx file and put it into a richtextbox? If so how? I have tried.LoadFile and it throws an exception saying invalid format? I tried reading the file from a stream and that also doesn't work?
