Answer 1

‘.doc’ is a not a simple text based file format. You have to use interop for maniuplation.

Include the COM Libary ‘Microsoft Word 12.0 Object Library’. Create an ApplicationClass and use the property Documents to open your document.

        object wordPath = null;         object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;          wordPath = @'C:\sample.doc';          // Create Interop object         ApplicationClass word = new ApplicationClass();         word.Visible = false;          // Open document         Document doc = word.Documents.Open(ref wordPath,             ref missing,              ref missing,              ref missing,              ref missing,              ref missing,              ref missing,              ref missing,              ref missing,             ref missing,             ref missing,             ref missing,             ref missing,             ref missing,             ref missing,             ref missing);          // Set document as active for interaction         doc.Activate();          // Select the whole content of the word document         word.Selection.WholeStory();          // Get the text from the document         string text = word.Selection.Text; 

There is a very good introduction at the blog of Scott C. Reynolds.
