<div class="markdown_content"><p>Sometimes you want to open a document to inspect or retrieve some information, and you want to do so in a way that ensures the document remains unchanged. In these instances, you want to open the document for read-only access. </p> <h2 id="openxml-words">OpenXML Words</h2> <p>The below sample code shows how you can add some text and attempt to save the changes to show that access is read-only. Once you have access to the body of the main document part, you add text by adding instances of the <strong>Paragraph, Run, and Text</strong> classes. This generates the required <strong>WordprocessingML</strong> markup. </p> <p>Below is the code sample</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre> OpenWordprocessingDocumentReadonly(OpenReadOnly.docx); public static void OpenWordprocessingDocumentReadonly(string filepath) { // Open a WordprocessingDocument based on a filepath. using (WordprocessingDocument wordDocument = WordprocessingDocument.Open(filepath, false)) { // Assign a reference to the existing document body. Body body = wordDocument.MainDocumentPart.Document.Body; // Attempt to add some text. Paragraph para = body.AppendChild(new Paragraph()); Run run = para.AppendChild(new Run()); run.AppendChild(new Text("Append text in body, but text is not saved OpenWordprocessingDocumentReadonly")); } } </pre></div> <h2 id="asposewords">Aspose.Words</h2> <p>Make the <strong>Document</strong> object having parameter filename and LoadOptions without setting password we cant protect or open document for read-only access . <strong>LoadOptions</strong> is a shortcut to initialize a new instance of this class with the specified password to load an encrypted document. Then initialize the <strong>DocumentBuilder</strong> object which provides methods to insert text, images and other content, specify font, paragraph and section formatting of word document. </p> <p>Below is the sample code</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre> OpenWordprocessingDocumentReadonly(OpenReadOnly.docx); private static void OpenWordprocessingDocumentReadonly(string fileName) { //make object of document class to get the filename and set the password Document doc = new Document(fileName, new LoadOptions("1234")); //intialize document builder to insert text in word document DocumentBuilder db = new DocumentBuilder(doc); string txt = "Append text in body - OpenAndAddToWordprocessingStream"; db.Writeln(txt); //save the document file doc.Save(OpenReadOnly.docx); } </pre></div> <h2 id="download">Download</h2> <ul> <li><a href="../">Sample Code</a></li> </ul></div>
