asp_components thread: Transfer text data from MS Word to DB

Help,
I am trying to transfer MS Word documents onto the web but its not that
simple. The client wants the text which are numerous news articles to be
re colated onto the web. The text comes in two formats, BOLD for the
headings and plain text for the body. Once I have seperated the data I
can easily play around with it and place it onto the web.
Does anyone know how that I might use ASP to strip down the MS Word
document and identify which is the Bold text from the standard text so
that I can seperate the two?
I know that it would be easier to simply cut and paste the info into a
form but the client needs something easy like select the document and off
we go.
Thanks,
Graham

You might try exporting the word documents to HTML, then you can parse them
as a text files looking for the <bold> tags.... if you were really clever,
you might be able to use automation to start word and do the export on the
fly...

Hi Graham,
I am interested in the solution. I want to copy text between tags to display.
Please let me have the code once it works as suggested (automation).
TIA
