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?

View 7 RepliesI am trying to read a txt file into a richtextbox and been doing some research and from what I read this should work, but I get a error saying that the file format is not valid. I thought that the richtextbox control can read txt files as well as rtf files automatically. The file I am trying to read is saved in Notepad as a txt file. I can open the file if it is rtf, but not if it is a txt. Any Ideas why it wouldn't work? I am also attaching the textfile I am trying to use. Here is what I got so far.

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.

View 2 RepliesI'm developing a command line application in Visual Basic .Net 2005 for converting RTF files into TXT. The application works perfect except for one thing. The files saved with MS Word containing some textbox make trouble. I'll explain it better with an example
1 - I open MS Word, I create a new document.
2 - I insert a texbox and i write some words inside.
3 - I save the file as RTF.
4 - I use my command line application for converting the RTF into TXT. The text inside the textbox doesn't appear anywhere.
The thing is that if I open the RTF file with wordpad it shows the text. It's not in a text box, but it shows it.The problem is that this application will read files uploaded by users automatically so I can't just leave it like this, I have to take into account that there is the possibility that some user will save an RTF file with a textbox inside so I need it to be able to get the contents of the textbox the same way wordpad does.
