perform a macro on a word document

[Bert Sachs]

Hello

I have developed an application (C#) that retrieves
email's from a pop3 server and checks for word documents.
If the attachment contains a word file i save it on the
filesystem. Now i want to perform some macros on the word
document. How can accomplish this? Many thanks in advance.

Hi Bert,

Hmmmm. I think you might be better off in a dotnet group
with this question, to begin with. And you should probably
do a search on MSDN for code examples on automating Office
apps (more specifcally, Word) from your programming
environment.

Once you know the basics, and have specific object model
questions (i.e. how do I do xyz in Word), word.VBA groups
might be able to help you a little. But VB(A) is nothing at
all like C# (or any NET language).
