Other usages with the Word Object Model

Question

I would like to know more about usages with the Word Object Model.

Previously, I have added a comment to a related previous post that users may not use the Word Object Model with just a Rich Text Box.

I am on a different topic now.

Would I need to add a control such as a Text Edit WPF control?

Or would I need to simply add another control just to use the Word Object Model such as a Rich Text Box or Text Box?

Right now, I am doing my best to instantiate those classes properly.

It has not turned out the way I have wanted to since my last posted code snippet.

Maybe I might be missing some assembly references.

Here is a code snippet:

using Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;
using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;
using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;

Would I also need a Flow Document class and instantiate it?

Besides using the Word Object Model may require either a Rich Text or Text Box control just to access its methods and properties, such as Application or Selection classes without the need for going to a different project type.

@John, Welcome to Microsoft Q&A, you could try the following code to use c# code to achieve the same function with the VBA code:

using Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;

            Word.Application app = new Word.Application();  
            app.Visible=true;
            app.Documents.Open("C:
            app = null;

Best Regards,

Jack
