I am trying to read .doc/.docx file with stream reader, but it give me output as unspecified character ie.
??[ ?L?f???C???.
I'm writing the file using a text editor. Here's a snippet of my code:
string filePath = baseUrl+ "Sample.docx";
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(filePath, Encoding.UTF8))
{
txtBody.Text = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
I'm using VS 2010. Thank you.
