Opening .doc files from Java

Ok, here's my problem.
I'm using Java to create an autorun program for a little thing I'm putting together.
One of the options should be "Read documentation" . However, to do that, I need to make my program open a Microsoft Word (.doc) document. What is the command/how can I do this? By open, I mean open the file in MS Word for viewing.

When you say "where filename is the path" do you mean
type in "\documentation\file.doc" or is it a variable?It's a variable in the example. It doesn't matter -- just as long as the resulting string passed to exec will contain the correct file name so the OS will see it.

Cant open doc files from the server on MacBook Air after upgrading to Maverick

Cant open doc files from the server on MacBook Air after upgrading to Maverick, I can only open up docx file. Thank you!

Thanks for the suggestion! I don't use Phantasm or VectorScribe (or any Astute Graphics plugins for that matter). I do, however, have a Wacom tablet and have a few plugins that concern using Blurb Book Creator as well as LiveSurface Context.
I did the very unfortunate and foolish act of upgrading to Maverick without a backup, so postponing isn't an option for me.
I geuss my question at this point would be, would it be worthwhile to wipe all the adobe products from my harddrive and re-install them? Or would that be a useless endeavor.
I don't have an external hard-drive so backing up and re-installing the entire OS would be a bit much. Any suggestions?

Opening .doc files from IFS

Hi,
I have a question about some functionality in the default web package with ifs. It is probably quite basic, but I am having difficulty with it. In the out of the box web ui, if I click on an uploaded .doc file, Microsoft Word gets loaded in my browser with the file openned.
I am using the JAVA API, and I have uploaded and foldered a .doc file. When I click on it, href="//computer/path/file.doc" word opens, but I get the file was not found.Any ideas?? Thank you.
Ian

The decision on which application the browser runs is taken by the browser based on information supplied in the HTTP response.
Here's an updated version of the RenderContent method that gives you some degree of control over this process...

Open .doc file in java on Windows 98/2000

Hi all,
I need to open a .doc file on Windows 98/2000 PC thriugh java.I have used the command
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] {"cmd", "/C", "start", "\"\"", filename});
This command works fine on Window 2000 but gives IO Exception: CreateProcess: start <filename> error=2
So I tried the command
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("start"+filename);
Now this command works fine on Windows 98 but gives the same error on Win2000.
Someone please suggest a command which will work fine on all Windows OS.
Thanks in advance

Have a look at the Java Desktop Integration Components Project https://jdic.dev.java.net/documentation/index.html
especially look at
https://jdic.dev.java.net/nonav/documentation/javadoc/jdic/org/jdesktop/jdic/desktop/Desktop.html#open(java.io.File)
which opens a File using the default application associated with this kind of file.

Not opening .doc files from cd??

Hi,
I have various .doc files on cd. I want to use pages to open them. When i drag them from the cd onto either the pages icon or try the same using "file, open" from within pages i get an error message saying that it cannot open the file.
If i drag the same .doc files onto the hard drive first i can open them in pages no problem.
I need to be able to open them from the cd. Does anyone know what is wrong here or how it can be fixed?
Many thanks.

Hello
My guess is that the device must be set as read/write to permit to expand the Index.xml.gz file which contains the doc's description.
I just guess because I saw the Index.xml file during the save process but, even with huge documents I was unable to see the expansion process at work.
I was also able to see the Index.xml file if I double click the Index.xml.gz icon.

Can not open .doc files from Finder

I installed Snow Leopard and now I'm having trouble with .doc files. I use Microsoft Office 2004. When I try to open a .doc file directly from the internet or by clicking on it from Finder or desktop, it won't open. Instead I have to go into Word and click open then browse. Any ideas on how to fix this?

This works only for files that I know have been created in Mac Office 2004, but any other files I download - for instance, from school - will not open in this way. I followed your suggestion, but Word was already the default application used and the "change all" box was unclickable.
I tried right clicking on the file, going to the "open with" menu, then clicking "other" and selected Word that way. I made sure that "always open with" was checked, but it still didn't help.

Trial question: Can't open .doc files from web page

I'm using Dreamweaver on a Mac, and I have a link on a page
that should bring up a doc file. When I preview the page in Safari,
it brings up a directory listing which highlights the file so that
you can double-click and open the file. (Of course, I'd love for it
to go ahead and open the file, but my understanding is that
Dreamweaver Mac doesn't support that.) However, when I preview in
Internet Explorer, I either get a message that the File is Not
Found or it just spins and never brings up anything. The file is in
the root directory of my site (same directory as my index.html.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Kim

Do you have Word installed on your Mac? If you don't, it
won't open.

Opening HTML file from java GUI

Can someone please tell me how I can open a HTML file in Internet Explorer from a Java GUI,
I have an asssignment I am doing for college and I was toying with the idea of putting in helpfiles, for the program, can anyone tell me the easiest way of apcomplishing this???
Thanks in advance for your help,
Kaspah

Although this should answer your question, there are other (cross platform) ways to do what you want. As opposed to your "must have internet explorer" solution. Swing has a built in html viewer you might use, for example. I've been doing some reading on java/xml solutions. I don't consider myself knowledgeable enough (yet) to comment on that solution though. A delimited text file would be another solution. Useing that solution you could treat the file like a set of parrallel arrays on the hard drive and disply your text on pre-formated labels. Anyway, here is a link to you answer......

How to open a file from thumbdrive by Java!

Can anyone reply me the Java sample code to open a file from thumbdrive. Currently I can only open files from my "C"Drive. The Drive which I will be using for my thumbdrive is F Drive.
Thank you!

Currently I need to make changes to this code so that it can read the "my file" from my f drive instead of the c drive.
/public class Main {
public Main() {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
//Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start myfile.doc");
//Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start \"myfile.doc\"");
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start myfile.pps");
//Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start myfile.xls");
//Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start myfile.pdf");
//Runtime.getRuntime().exec("myfile.doc");
catch (Exception x) {
x.printStackTrace();
catch (Error e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

How to open an PDF file from Java Application

Hi
I am developing a GUI application in java swing.
on clicking one button, I want to open PDF file from my swing application.
Is there any API through which I can achieve this?

Here's a way to do it (if I understand you
correctly). Just let explorer.exe do it for you.
import java.awt.*;
public class openPDF
     Desktop desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
     public openPDF()
          open("test.pdf");
     public void open(String path)
          try
               Runtime.getRuntime().exec("explorer.exe "+path);
} catch(Exception e) { System.out.println("NAI!
I! ERROR!\n"+e); }
     public static void main(String[] args)
          openPDF myApplication = new openPDF();
Why do you have a Desktop object as a member but instead of using it, you execute a command with Runtime (which is not platform independent!)???

I cannot open any .doc files on Firefox from any source such as yahoo mail, blackboard, and UW Catalyst, while I have no problem opening .docx files from the same sites. When then happens, I have to switch to explorer and it's really annoying.

Cannot open Microsoft Word .doc files from any website (.docx are ok)

 Another question, I used a iplanet web server as a proxy server with a
 cluster of two weblogic servers pluged in, although I set
 weblogic.properties to round-robin, however, when I run a fibonacci servlet,
 it does not do the round-robin. It always go to one machine for a lot of
 times. Any idea?
 Thank you for your help.

May i presume that your cluster is configured on a shared file system?.
 I have seen this problem only if you cluster is configured on different machines
 and if the directory structure is not identical.
 let us know..

Want to open specific file from DMS Doc. thorugh Function

HI,
is there any function module to open specific file from DMS Document. ?
There is already one function module DOCUMENT_SHOW_DIRECT to open File from document. But
in case of there are more than one file in DMS Document is it giving me Popup menu to open file from List.
I just want to open any single file without any popup from DMS Document.

Hi,
from standard point of view this kind of pop-up is always raised by the function module in case there are multiple originals assigned to the document info record.
Best regards,
Christoph
