| Hi.
Is there any JAVA API for opening Word .doc files?
Thank you.

| Thank you very much for your help, Paul ;-)
But, actually, I already found the POI project page but I did not find
where to download it and how to install it :-(
I am a litle bit rookie on Java (well, maybe more than "a litle bit"
:-D). So, thank you for your patience ;-)
Jordi.

So you found
http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/
but don't see the Download-Link and the Docs-area? Do you
have VNC installed? That way somebody would be able to click
on the right links for you ;-)

Being new with Java you should start with something more easy
than reading MS-files IMHO.

I have just added some notes here to help you download and build POI.
Jakarta apache need to put someone on handling a transparent mirror
selection process so you can find the downloads more easily.

Check it out. You will see it is one of the most unfriendly
incomprehensible download system since the days of pure FTP

Sorry? I open http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/, click on "Download",
take the first link in the HTTP-section, go into the directory
release/bin/ and download the release of choice. That's five
mouse-clicks and far less than I need for downloading a
Java Virtual Machine from the SUN-website.
