Windows Forms Text Editor Control That Can Handle MS Word Documents Properly?
Aug 13, 2011
I need to find a Windows forms Text edit which can handle MS Word documents correctly.That is documents with Images, textboxes etc (.doc, .docx).I have tried Devexpress Xtrarichedit and TXText Control but when you load a MS Word Document (.doc, .docx) the document does not appear as it does in MS Word.That is Textboxes overlapping images are misaligned or have no transparent background option, so the white background of the textbox hides part ot the image.Has anybody had experience with 3rd party Document .net editors which mamage MS Word Documents correctly?

The app Im working on is dunning on an embedded xp machine. It recieves input from the serial port from an industrial process, and then a backgroundworker class calculates and updates the single form GUI with the results from the process. Very simple.Now, the customer want to allow automatic download of log files by an USB memory. The process should work like this:
1)User plug in an usb memory
2)SHow a virtual keypad (touch screen) where the user enter a security code
3)If code ok, show a 3 choice screen, if not ok show error message and allow the user to try again.
4) If user choose the "export all" button, this choose form will close and i display another form with a progress bar that show how all files are copied to the usb memory. When this process is complete, I will display teh form that says "remove the usb memory and press ok to restart the application.
As you see here lots of forms are created and disposed based on user choices. My biggest issue here is that I have no clear design pattern to work from.For example.. should I have this "chain" in the main gui form, or should I let each form create the next form. For example on the "select action" form, when I press export, should this form create and show the "copy progress" form, or should all forms be created and destroyed from the main gui form?
Also, such an issue like with the password. I put it as a constant on the main form, to avoid "magic numbers" in the code. And then I ran into problem because the "keypad" form is created on another thread and I can't access the costant on the main form, so I got a cross thread exception.Everything starts when an USB memory is connected. And the OnConnected eventhandler is running on a different thread than the main UI thread. how to design this chain of window creation/deletion is greatly appreciated. I show all forms with the SHowDialog because I dont want the user to be able to close the form unless he/she presses a button. And not by accident press somewhere else.

I have a Rich textbox from which i need to search for text.Find should start at the beginning of the text. Find Next should look for the next occurrence. If no previous occurrence, it should start at the beginning (duplicate functionality as Find).Problem is Find is working fine but when i click find next instead of searching for the next occurence it starts from begining after i click find button.
Public Class frmFind
Dim start As Integer = 0
Dim indexOfSearchText As Integer = 0

I am loading a word document into the web browser control using code like this:
WebBrowser1.Navigate("C:DocsTest DocumentsTest.doc") When I do this, everything works fine and the user can use all of the toolbars.
However, if after I do that, I then open word outside of my app, all of the toolbars in the word document in my app become disabled.
I have done some searching and found other people have had this issue and this MS article mentions similar symptoms, but offers no solution.

I create a program whose functionality would be selecting a file, then gets the contents of that file (Word or text files). The program, of course, has a Richtextbox on it where the file content will be filled to.

I have a basic three form application. It doesn't seem to close after navigating through forms. If I were to open the application, and the main form is displayed. If I press the X button, the application closes fine(Goes from processes) If I were to open the application, and then navigate from the main form to another form using me.hide & form1.show, and press the red X on Form1, the application again, closes fine.

I am doing a Windows Form Application assignment (Simple User Interface Text Editor - practically my own version of MS Notepad) for my VB.Net course... I have practically completed the project however there were certain items we had to add to one of the dropdown menus one being Word Wrap (Under the Edit drop down). I am really confused as what to do here for the WordWrapToolStripMenuItem_Click event handler?!

Public objword As New Word.Application
objword.Documents.Open(FileName:=ofilename)
^ Showing the declaration of the word document that i wish to edit.
Dim oDoc As Word.Document
objword.Visible = True
oDoc = objword.ActiveDocument
oDoc.Range.Text = codes(j, 1) & " " & codes(j, 2)
This gets the document and adds text into it, exactly what i want it to do. But it replaces the whole document. I just want it to add text at the start of the document. Not replace the whole document.

My application uses an MDI form, and there are instances where the end user will need multiple child windows open at a time. I need an easy way for the user to switch between windows, which made me think of using tabs kinda like Firefox, or like the tabs in the Visual Studio IDE up at the top where you can switch between open forms and code files.
I'm curious if there is a control in .NET that will already do this? I would rather not re-invent the wheel if I can help it. Google has failed me thus far.

Does anyone know of a good rich text editor control? I am looking for something that can take either, plain text, rtf and html. I want to be able to edit the text. It would AWSOME if it can convert rtf to html and html to rtf. I have tried the C1 and that was bad. It does not read rtf and does not convert anything. And it was really slow.

Scenario: I have about 14000 word documents that need to be converted from "Microsoft Word 97 - 2003 Document" to "Microsoft Word Document". In other words upgraded to 2010 format (.docx).
Question: Is there an easy way to do this using API's or something? Note: I've only been able to find a microsoft program that converts the documents to .docx but they still open in compatability mode. It would be nice if they could just be converted to the new format. Same functionality you get when you open an old document and it gives you the option to convert it.[URL]..EDIT2: This is my current function for converting the documents
[Code]...
Also it opens word after about 2 or 3 conversions and starts flashing but keeps converting.EDIT3: Tweaked to code above a little bit and it runs cleaner. Takes 1min10sec to convert 8 files though. Considering I have 14000 I need to convert this method will take a reasonably long time.
EDIT4: Changed the code up again. Uses a threadpool now. Seems to run a bit faster. Still need to run on a better computer to convert all the documents. Or do them slowly by folder. Can anyone think of any other way to optimize this?

What would be the best approach for creating MS Word 2007 documents with vb.net that contains signature lines? I am currently in the planning phase of a project and I'm trying to gather some info. The idea would be to upgrade this program we have already developed(using vb.net) to generate .docx files that contain signature lines that are created progmatically. The signatures would be added later by the user through a workflow in SharePoint I just need to create the document with the lines. I have seen different tutorials on creating word docs, but not sure which method would be the best for what I'm doing. Where should I start looking?
Also, there doesnt seem to be too many tutorials on adding signatures line through code, more specifically how to automate the signature line setup. e.g. Who should sign, signers name, signers email address. How do I set these paramaters through code?

I'm using vb.net to check that certain Excel or Word documents exist in a folder.
EG
strFileFound = Dir("C:TestFolderMyExcelFile.xls")
strFileFound = Dir("C:TestFolderMyWordDoc.doc")
If the documents are created using Excel 97 or Word 97 the files are found. If the the documents are created using Excel 2007 or Word 2007 the files are not found.
I have checked the permissions between the two different versions and they appear to be the same.
why Dir dosen't work with Excel 2007 and Word 2007 files?

I want to open a number of RTF documents in Word 2007, one at a time, in a VB .NET program. Here is a small representative sample of my code:
Imports Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word
Public Shared WordApp As Object = Nothing
Public Shared WordAppInit As Boolean = False
Public Shared Sub ExecWord()
If Not WordAppInit Then
On Error Resume Next
[Code] .....
Sometimes it hangs on one of the WordApp or WordDoc statements in TestSub1; sometimes it gets all the way through TestSub1 without problems but then hangs in TestSub2. Often it leaves an instance of WinWord running so that I have to kill it in Task Manager or reboot the system.
