Hi,
I am trying to use the Action pane to insert into a document the contents of
another document.
So far I have been able to get the Actions Pane to work fine. I have the
contents of the other document which I want to insert in a "Stream" object.
Can anyone help me as to how I can insert the contents of this stream into
the current document at the current cursor position??

Thanks in advance,
-Pritam

Word isn't designed to handle "streams", except in the form of its own, native
XML vocabulary. In that case, you can use the XML property to get the XML from
one document and the InsertXML method to put it into a different one...

Cindy,
Thanks for the quick reply.
Do you have any sample code or any resources I could look at to find out how
to read word document in XML format and insert it into another document?

Thanks
