Copy Word DOM Structure As C# Object
How is it possible to copy a Microsoft Word DOM structure as a C# object?
Accessing Work DOM objects is slow, and if the structure is large enough, accessing individual elements becomes prohibitively slow. For example:
foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Range item in myDocument.range.SpellingErrors)
{
string myString = item.Text;
}
might take too long of time. You don't own the DOM object and so you can't modify for other copy techniques.
Is there a way to copy this as a C# object and then be able to work with it outside of Word?
c# vba ms-word

If accessing the COM object is slow, then copying it will be just as slow.

If it's not necessary to interact with the user look at working directly with the file, using the Open XML file format (OPen XML SDK, for example). That will be much faster

OpenXML can't be used since they are not formal items in the file. Some structures exist only in memory, such as the misspelling list. This may not be a VBA question per se, other than I can't get to the DOM except through VBA. It's slow because accessing the DOM requires going through several layers.

We use Aspose at work, but it isn't free. It is, however, pretty good.
