Hello,

How can I read Word or PDF files in VB.net? I have to make a resume parser that can convert Word or pdf resume to XML file.

Thanks.
 
There is no built in to do that in the Framework. You would have to search for components that would do that for you.
 
Nasimov, if you have word installed on the box, you may be able to use script word itself using vb.net. Search for the word "automation" along with "MS Word" and .NET. Also, there are components that you can purchase to convert word to pdf
(if that is what you meant).
