how to fetch Word document through LAPI as text/html ? Please help

Loretta_Goralczyk_(goralczyk.loretta@gene.com_-_(d

I want to retrieve a Word document as HTML through LAPI so I can return the content on a JSP page. I can view the document as HTML in the LiveLink web interface with the func=doc.View url, so there must be a parser somewhere in LiveLink, but I can't figure out how to access it through LAPI.It seems that fetchVersion returns the doc format, and fetchRendition requires me to first create the rendition. I want it to automatically render the html. Thanks

The html on the fly rendition is generated by a component in the Livelink cgi directory called llview.exe. You can't access it or its output from LAPI. You can implement html view in your jsp by creating a framed page like doc.View does.
