Does anyone know of the easiest method of converting a word doc either 2003 or 2007 to 'nice' looking XML.
I know there's the say as XML option in 2003, and 2007 natively supports XML, but both these options wrap the usual amount of MS rubbish tags in there. I simply want to have tags that tell me the text in the document and the formatting of that text, most likely in paragraphs.
I considered using words document model and listing through storyranges for the properties i want in VBA and adding my own XML tags, but this seems very cumbersome/slow/not extensible.
Any ideas appreciated, there most be someone else out there you needs XML from word docs
A,
