I would like to extract the content and format from a Word document (in MFC/C++ 6.0). I have been struggling with the examples. I have the "Word2XML" Microsoft example but find it difficult to decode the VB to MFC/C++. Is TOM a solution ? (TOM does not have any examples in the documentation.) Where can I find a example of its use?

I have found many examples on how to build up a Word document. I would like to parse an Word document and extract the document content and structure. (Not the on tables, then on sections, then on paragraph). The ultimate would be the MSDN "Word2XML" project in MFC!

Thank you for the info. CFile64 needed integration, but did the trick! (Will I ever need CFile128?)

I need to process large files (> 2Gig). The regular C functions "fopen" or MFC CFile operate with a long value offset which limits the file to 2**31. Is their a other option than using low level routines ( _open, _lseek, ...) ? Andre
