WinForms and Word Application

[Emil]

Hi all,

I’m a C++ developer and a very beginner in both C# (.Net) and Word
Programming. What my company wants next is something like this: from
different texts to build a Word 2007 document and then open this in the real
Word 2007 application to give the user the possibility to change the document
as usual with all possibilities (Menüs, Panels, etc.). Well my problem is
that the Word 2007 must be embedded in our C# - Application (WinForms).
Knows somebody a solution to do this: embed the Word 2007 application in
WinForms or if better maybe in WPF? For any idea thank you in advance.

Best Regards,
Emil

All Office programs can be automated via their programmatic interfaces.

A set of Primary Interop Assemblies (PIA's) are available to allow managed
code to access the unmanaged COM interfaces of the office suite.

The datails are pretty simple to find. I suggest looking on MSDN first.
