Convert HTML to Word Document

Question

 Hi! I wish to convert a HTML file to Word Document file. Is there anyway to save it as (*.doc) using Microsoft.Office.Interop library? Or is there any alternative method beside changing the file extension from (*.html) to (*.doc) because I wish to do it programmatically in C#. Thanks.

Answer 1

Hi,  I am new here to this website.   There is a lot of great information on here.  

I was wondering if you ever found a way to do this, perhaps through another avenue.  I am curious about doing this myself.

Thank you for your help.

Best wishes to you.

 Hi! I did found a solution from somewhere else. You can try to open HTML file in word using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word and save it in *.doc file type. Here are the sample codes that I used:-

object filename1 = filename;
object oMissing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
object readOnly = false;
object oFalse = false;

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application oWord = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application();
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document oDoc = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document();
oDoc = oWord.Documents.Add(ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
oWord.Visible = false;

oDoc = oWord.Documents.Open(ref filename1, ref oMissing, ref readOnly, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,ref oMissing, ref oMissing);

filename1 = @"D:\FileConverter\Temp\new.doc";
object fileFormat = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdSaveFormat.wdFormatDocument;
oDoc.SaveAs(ref filename1, ref fileFormat, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing,ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);

oDoc.Close(ref oFalse, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
oWord.Quit(ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
