Read ASCII from .doc file

[florin112]

Hi!

I need to read ASCII for characters from a Micrsoft Word document and separe it into words.Example: hi hi - 105106 SPACE 105106.


How I can make this?



Sorry for bad english.

you use #include <ifstream> / <ofstream> first then you make a file object for some reason; like soo ifstream letterfile ("letterz.txt");

so now i could cout<<letterfile;

i could even do things like this

 for (int q = 0; q<27; q++)
        {
            for (int z = 0; z<36; z++)
            {
                letterfile >> box[q][z];
            }
        }

I recomend you experiment with string manipulating code XD

But ifstream/ofstream read only .txt files. I need to read .doc file.

Thanks.

Not correct. If the file is opened in binary mode, then absolutely any type of data can be read. Use ios::binary when opening the file.
