I do not think this is possible without the Office Interop assemblies. See here[^] for a download.

ok, can i read the data through the fstream, and then do decode/encode. Is it a right move?

Yes, of course, you can write your own parser, see microsoft documentation : http://www.microsoft.com/interop/docs/OfficeBinaryFormats.mspx[^]

Please provide some sample code to perform it.

You can only do this if you know the file format; I doubt that this would be a good thing. As I said before, get the Interop assemblies and use them. There are many tutorials both here and on the internet to show you how to use these features.
