You could always write a macro to do it. In fact, you can record the macro and see most of the code.

Please see my past answer: How to add microsoft excel 15.0 object library from Add Reference in MS Visual Studio 2010[^].

Please don't pay attention for the topic of the original question, read my other answers references in this one.

You're welcome. I added my answer. Please, see it.
First of all, Word document is not a database! Even if there are some useful information, like Name, age, sex, etc. there is no way to read them, unless they are stored in: bookmarks, fields, tables, custom properties.

Voted 4. Can be useful, but... I thing OP knew that it's not a database. Nobody mentioned any tables. Probably the document just have some fixed structure; and the code can extract some data on ad-hoc basis. Of course, it does not look like healthy "architecture"... Main problem is reading/parsing Office document, and there are different approaches, Interop and automation probably being not the best ones...
