Clipboard copy paste conflict? Multi-documents

C

Cider123

The application I'm building is a documentation system.
I use DOSFramer to embed a Word 2003 Document into a C# application.

Here are the goals, perhaps someone can recommend the best way to do this:

1. Be able to store/retrieve content of a Word Document in SQL Server,
without saving the contents to a hard drive and then uploading the binary.
If content was simple text this wouldn't be an issue, but it contains
formatting, images, etc.

2. Be able to run a remote WCF Service that will open a Word template with
MergeFields, inject multiple Word Document content to replace the MergeFields.

My concern is when multiple people request documentation, the merge process
will cut through each other as content is copied and pasted to the
mergefields.

I thought maybe the Copy / Paste might be restricted to the application
session but it's just clipboard based. I copied text from a web site and
then ran the application calling the paste method and sure enough the content
pasted as one would expect.

I've googled for the hours reading all sorts of things, but nothing like
what I'm trying to accomplish.

Help! =)

Hi Cider

this newsgroup is for "general questions" (well, actually it was about
document management, but MSFT hast managed to direct all kinds of
generic questions in here).

The only advice I can give you is go look into one of the .vba
newsgroups (that's where the folks knowing the Word OM best are
lurking), or a developer forum.
