Load a .DOC file into a Web Text Editor

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

I am using a rich text editor from Telerik in my application. I recently purchased your Words module and am now trying to load this editor with a file selected by using a fileupload control to locate the file to upload, an web button control to fire the upload event, and the ASPOSE Words engin to load the file to the editors content area.
So far this is what I have tried, but it does not load the formatted document. What it loads in the content area is the literal “Aspose.Words.Document”.

string filepath = WBSFileBrowse.PostedFile.FileName;
Document doc = new Document(filepath, Aspose.Words.LoadFormat.Doc, null);
WBSDecriptionEditor.Content = doc.ToString();

What am I doing wrong?? Could you provide an example??
Thanks

Hi
Thanks for your inquiry. Please try using the following code:

// Open existing document
Document doc = new Document(@"Test289\in.doc");
// Save document into stream
MemoryStream rtfStream = new MemoryStream();
doc.Save(rtfStream, SaveFormat.Rtf); //If you need HTML string then use SaveFormat.Html
// Get rtf string
string rtfString = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(rtfStream.GetBuffer(), 0, (int)rtfStream.Length);

Hope this helps.
Best regards.

Thanks for the quick response.
I get a compile error saying that ‘Endcoding’ does not exist in current context. Am I missing an assembly reference, and if so, what would it be.
