Saving MS Word Document to Database

Question

My question is how would I go about saving a MS Word document to a 9i Database. I am using webforms, so using an OLE object wont work. I am using a JavaBean to get the file name, but that is all i can come up with so far. I have a column in my database of type Long Raw which I intend to store the binary Word file in. If you know how I can save this MS Word file, please let me know, your help is much appreciated.

Answer 1

With this code, you can load file (filename)into word:
for Windows NT
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"cmd", "/c", "start winword.exe \""+filename+"\""});
for Windows 98
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"cmd", "/c", "start winword.exe \""+filename+"\""});
Later use fileupload utility to load you file into forms server
