Hello,,

I am working on an Word 2007 add-in,I want this add-in to get the whole content of this active word document and convert it to array of bytes without saving the document in the filestream.
I have succeeded in getting the text in this document and convert it to an array of bytes without saving the document,but that is not enough.

So as a summary of my issuess:
1. I want to get the whole content (text,image..etc)in this active word document and convert it to an array of bytes.
2. I want the format of this document content to be preserved when I convert it to an array of bytes.Because later on I will get this content(as an array of bytes)back and convert to its original.
The document content in stored in a database.

I hope I explained my problem clear enough,I'd appreciate it if anyone can help me with it.

Thank you in advance,,
:)

To get whole Content in word document. Please see the Code Below

C#

Application wordApp = new ApplicationClass();
 Document doc = null;

 // path where word File is uploaded
 public string file_Name = "GeekGirl.doc";
  object uploadFilePath="C:\FolderName" +file_Name ;

           object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
             object setFalse = false;
             object saveChanges = WdSaveOptions.wdSaveChanges;
             object setTrue = true;
             doc = wordApp.Documents.Open( ref uploadFilePath
             ref setFalse, ref setFalse, ref setFalse, ref missing,
             ref missing, ref setTrue, ref missing, ref missing,
             ref missing, ref missing, ref setFalse, ref setFalse,
             ref missing, ref setTrue, ref missing);
