Open MS Word Document in MS Word from a C# Windows Form

11,445

Solution 1

What i have done is put the word document in with my .exe file extension of my program in the Release folder and then in my code i have this one line of code when a certain button is pressed:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("document.docx");

This code basically finds the document and then opens it from the Release folder. Thanks for everyone's help though.

Solution 2

Last time I worked with excel I opened it using the following code:

Process.Start(FileLocation)

Guess the same would also work for Word.

Solution 3

Creating and Opening Word Documents with C#
.NET 4.0 makes it easier also
