I'm sorry to ask this totally lame question, but i cannot find any documentation. I have written an addin that works as an ftp client, and i would like the addin to be able to open a word document by double clicking that item in one of my listviews. I am working with Word in office 2007, VS2005, VSTO2005, and the PIA's, and coding in c#. Thankyou in advance -Rob
Hi You need the Documents.Open method. In VBA it would be something like: Sub OpenDocument() Dim sPFN As String Dim oDoc As Word.Document Dim wdApp as word.Application 'Get a reference to a Word application set wdApp = where ever you're getting that from 'Get the path and file name from somewhere sPFN = "C:\My folder\My subfolder\MyDocument.doc" 'Open the document Set oDoc = wdApp.Documents.Open(FileName:=sPFN) 'You can now do stuff to the document End Sub You'll need to translate to C# and add appropriate error checking. There are many parameters to the .Open method - look up Word VBA help for the full details. Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.
