How to read a .doc file

how can we read a MSWORD file through java?

You Can NOT.
You can, however, work with .rtf files.
The reason is that MS does not publish the format for .doc since they consider .rtf to be the format for inter-application use. The .doc format is different for each version of word.
visit http://www.wotsit.org/ for the file format for RTF, or use one of the existing classes which deal with RTF.
Since .rtf is meant to be used publicly and uses ascii markup it is probably much easier than trying to decifer the binary markup in .doc files.

  • How do we display .doc files or .pdf files inside flex containers like Panel or Canvas?

    How do we display .doc files or .pdf files inside flex containers like Panel or Canvas? (i am talking about Flex web browser application and NOT air)
    thanks in advance.

    Perhaps I was not clear...
    We have a Word doc.
    We want to create a PDF doc from it.
    We want, in Word/VBA, to add content (annotation/text note=sticky) to the PDF from Word via VBA macro.
    What is the best way to do this?
    1. Use a VBA call to the PDF doc to execute the AcroJS (we would pass the content, location, etc for the note in the call) - what is this VBA call that will execute AcroJS in an PDF doc?
    2. Use AIC OLE objects to access the PDF doc.
    From your last answer - it sounds like I cannot add the annotation to the PDF from the Word VBA macro - is that correct?
    Our content is already in the Word doc - We want to execute a macro in Word that will add content to the PDF doc  - can this not be done in Word?

  • How to read multiple dat files.

    Hello Everyone!
    I am working on a project that requires one file that creates a JFrame with a current file title, JTextFields that accesses two .dat files and a JButton.
    The user clicks a JButton to cycle through the first sequential .dat file. When the end of the first file is reached the file is closed, the JFrame title is changed to the second file title as the user continues to click the JButton to continue on viewing the second file?s records, until the second reaches the end of file.
    The project requires using Try-Catches to catch the EOF exceptions and IOExceptions and Thread or Runnable.
    I have been able to get one file to read and display its records; however, researching back through my text on how to read/write to files I haven?t been able to determine how to get to the end of the file and proceed to the next file without triggering the EOFException. I have even tried multiple Try-Catches (one for each file within the actionPerformed method) and that ends up ignoring the first file records and only displays the second files records.
    This is a school project and we have only covered just the bare basics of Java over the last two months. So, any hints that anyone can provide can only be of what type of procedure will be needed or what procedure won?t help to complete the task, without giving away the solution.
    I have spent approximately 40 hours of study time on this project and believe that I have definitely run into a major snag.
    The following is the code I have so far:
    import java.io.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;

  • How to read a text file using Java

    Guys,
    Good day!
    Please help me how to read a text file using Java and create/convert that text file into XML.
    Thanks and God Bless.
    Regards,
    I-Talk

         public void fileRead(){
                 File aFile =new File("myFile.txt");
             BufferedReader input = null;
             try {
               input = new BufferedReader( new FileReader(aFile) );

             catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
               ex.printStackTrace();
             catch (IOException ex){
               ex.printStackTrace();
         }This code is to read a text file. But there is no such thing that will convert your text file to xml file. You have to have a defined XML format. Then you can read your data from text files and insert them inside your xml text. Or you may like to read xml tags from text files and insert your own data. The file format of .txt and .xml is far too different.

  • How to read a trace file?

    Can someone point me to a good resource where I can learn how to read a trace file? I have read somewhere that TKPROF can leave some things unattended. Worse, it reports things incorrectly.

    I usually recommend use Trace Analyzer (TRCA), Note:224270.1
    It includes all the details found on TKPROF, plus additional information normally requested and used for a transaction performance analysis. Generated report is more readable and extensive than text format used on prior version of this tool and on current TKPROF.

    6. Read the documentation and understand it.
    7. Find a source for ARPA files (if this is online then there is more java to learn as well.)
    8. Use 1,2 and 3 to write java code that consumes the ARPA file.
    9. Use 4 to ask the user for a word.
    10. Use 1 and 2 to write code that 'searches' what you read in 8.
