i need a Delphi unit ( or non-visual VCL)
to convert MSword/Excel/Powerpoint document to XML.
the generated XML is customizable,
the XML generated by Office 11 is too complicated for my need.
what i need is clean XML with text, paragraph style and "hard" page number (page-break manually added).
<[login to view URL]>
is very closed to what i have in mind,
but i need a pure delphi version instead of .NET.
the unit must be able to run with Delphi 7.
the unit should at least support MS Office 10 and MS Office 11 .
Please provide a demo program to utilize the unit, it will collect all *.doc, *.xlt, *.ppt files under a selected folder and generate a merged xml document.
other requirement:
1) output XML may be utf8 or utf16.
2) MS Office program shouldn't shown up when running the demo.
