Not yet, I will be checking in classes this weekend that support writing. I
have been working on it.

Ryan,
Thanx for the info. Which is the part that describes about
the layout of streams ( as I could not read it full).
Also can I use the classes already in the HDF like (FIB, CHPFKP etc) and
provide necesary setters, make these streams and write them.
Thanks & Regards
Praveen

Praveen,
I honestly don't know. The way I was planning on trying to do it is the way
you describe. You will also need a DOP. One section of the spec describes
the layout of the streams. It says which parts all documents must have. Go
over these.
I believe all OLE documents are required to have a SummaryInformation
stream
and maybe a DocumentSummaryInformation.

Hi all,
As per the Ms Word Documentation, A word docfile consists of a
main stream, a summary information stream, a table stream, a data stream,
and 0 or more object streams which contain private data for OLE 2.0 objects
embedded within the Word document.
Right now I am trying to create a Doc file with only some text, which means
I need to create the main stream which has the text. Should I create the
other streams If I dont have any Tables, Pictures or objects etc. Should I
need to use the Summary Information stream?
What I want to ask is by making an FIB, and the main stream with actual
Text, FKP's for CHP & PAP & STSH and just writing these streams will create
a Doc file??
Thanks & Regards
Praveen

That makes sense.

Development is coming along nicely. Surprisingly, I am able to re-use a lot
of the old stuff. I don't have it to a point that I can actually do
anything, so I am holding off checking anything in. Ideally, if you could
put them off for a couple of weeks or even a month, I think I could have a
version that can do read and write...
