Right, have done a bit more digging and found that OpenXML4j is still in what the developers refer to as 'pre-alpha' status. As a result, it's functionality is likely to be limited and there is a distinct lack of documentation. Still worth a look IMO - indeed I am playing around with it currently and have hit problems with logging of all things.
Later today, I am going to play around with the ODFToolkit. It is targeted at OpenOffice odt files and I do not know if it will even open an OpenXML document but I fully intend to try; after all what harm can it do? Finally, I came across a project at Sourceforge called Aperture; http://aperture.sourceforge.net/ http://aperture.sourceforge.net/ It is designed to scavange information from files and does include a class aimed at reading OpenXML files. Whether it is possible to use it to create or merge files is a moot point but there may be something there. The best - in terms of features - that I have been able to find so far is - unsurprisingly - Microsoft's own OpenXML SDK, however, as mentioned earlier, it is targeted at the .NET framework and so I cannot see how to make it work with Cocoon. I doubt that even using Mono ( http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page ) you could finesse this problem. It may be that you are best creating your own application - or perhaps working with the developers of OpenXML4j - to accomplish this task. On the one hand, I can see how to deal with the styles problem but do not have any idea how problematic it would be unpacking, modifying and then re-packing the docx file. mblee wrote: > > Hello, > > We are currently using Cocoon and need to combine multiple word 2007 > documents.
