    Word Docs

    Does anyone know how to create an array of Word Documents in Java?

    And then how to access them from that array or how to add stuff into them from the code?

    I do not think this is possible word docs are not like normal text files, word puts all kinds of encoded crap in there to mark formatting issues etc.

    Does it have to be word format?

    Java has the ability to read/write RTF files and limited abilites to modify them. Word can read and write RTF files too.

    Well if you can find a way of using ActiveX objects from inside Java then you could use the Microsoft Word object to control a document
