How to open and save files in MS Word

[Cal Who]

I submitted this to the Word.Programming NG but wonder if this can be done
as a VB program.

I know nothing about word macros but I have written Visual Basic programs so
maybe I be better off doing it in VB.

I did, years ago, write some code that used Word as a spell checker, but I
have no idea how to get Word to open and to save files.


I need to open each file (.doc) that is in a certain folder and
then save it both as a filtered HTML and also as a PDF.


I'd really appreciate a sample of something similar so I can get orientated
and know what to look up.



Thank in advance

My query us way too general.
Using VB.Net I can get the file names.

If the following is OK I'll be able to open the file
Private WordApp As New Word.ApplicationClass()

' WordApp.Activate();

WordApp.Visible = True

Dim aDoc As Word.Document = WordApp.Documents.Open(fileName, missing,
[readOnly], missing, missing, missing, missing, missing, missing, missing,
missing, isVisible)

aDoc.Activate()



Below is a Macro that I recored to save the file as an HTML and as a PDF.



I have no idea how to procede.

Do I convert the VBA code to VB.Net and simply run it?



What is, for example, Documents.Open FileName

and

ActiveDocument.ExportAsFixedFormat

Can I look this up someplace?



Thanks
