Greetings,

Is anybody aware of any source code that will export and convert pdf, doc,
rtf, htm, or .pdb to a plain text file? Thanks,

.....as a suggestion, Adobe have a tool that converts PDF to something else,
and all those formats you suggest can probably be converted to PDF. So you
only need to turn them all to PDF to then get them out as text.

the richtextbox control in dotnet has a load method and a text property. you can load an rtf file then use the text property to get the text only.
