Working with word 2000

[Haunter]

Ok I have a simple to task to emulate but just am not getting the right calls. I need to open a pre existing word document. emulate the search and replace feature right from the start of the document. This is what I have

private void PrimaryDataPrint_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Use the open file dialog to choose a word document
if (this.openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{

// set the file name from the open file dialog
object fileName = openFileDialog1.FileName;
object readOnly = false;

object isVisible = true;

// Here is the way to handle parameters you don't care about in .NET
object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;

// Make word visible, so you can see what's happening

WordApp.Visible = true;

// Open the document that was chosen by the dialog
Word.Document aDoc = WordApp.Documents.Open(ref fileName, ref missing, ref readOnly, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref isVisible);

// Activate the document so it shows up in front

aDoc.Activate();
// Experimenting starts here


object FindText = "this";
object ReplaceWith = "that";
object Replace = true;
object Forward = true;
object Wrap = false;
object Format = false;
object MatchCase = false;
object MatchWholeWord = false;
object MatchWildCards = false;
object MatchSoundsLike = false;
object MatchAllWordForms = false;

WordApp.Selection.Find.Execute( ref FindText,
ref MatchCase,
ref MatchWholeWord,
ref MatchWildCards,
ref MatchSoundsLike,
ref MatchAllWordForms,
ref Forward,
ref Wrap,
ref Format,
ref ReplaceWith,
ref Replace,
ref missing,
ref missing,
ref missing,
ref missing
);

// Add the copyright text and a line break
WordApp.Selection.TypeText("Some Text"
WordApp.Selection.TypeParagraph();
}


}

//END


Anyone who has some online references to what the methods,objects and parameter to calls for Office mean or how I can access and use them through vs.net please let me know..
Thanks in Advance

This is a link to the MSDN Library Word 2000 Reference:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d.../off2000/html/wotocobjectmodelapplication.asp

You should find all you need there. There is also a project about creating Microsoft Word documents from ASP.NET (C#):

good luck!
