I am working(vb.net03and05) with word documents stored in a sql db and I am
currently bringing them from a byte array into a temp file to pop into word
and make work do its thing as a com object. Is it possible to go straight
from a byte array to document in word?
Second question is this the right forum? or is there another location more
appropriate?

Well <g> I can answer the second question.... here's my 'canned' .Net
reply....

You'll want to post that question in a .Net group. They all contain "dotnet"
or "vsnet" in their names.
This and all other groups on the MS server that start with
"microsoft.public.vb" are for VB Classic (VB versions 1-6) and were in
existance long before any .Net products were released. While some of the
code looks the same, they are very different products and require a
different set of groups.

Try one of these:
news://microsoft.public.dotnet.general
news://microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb
