I have used the below code to create a word document and entered some text on it.

Now i want to insert a blank page after creating the document. Please give code to do that.

What I have tried:

Dim ssstring As String = pDoc.InnerText()
Dim sb As StringBuilder
Dim tmppath As String

sb = New StringBuilder()
sb.Append(pDoc.InnerText)

tmppath = (pObjMgr.GetField(Objects.Global, [Global].ESignFileLocation, 0) & "\Document_") & m_Document.ToString & "_" & DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddhhmmss") & ".doc"

File.WriteAllText(tmppath, sb.ToString(), Encoding.UTF8)

No, you don't. You're creating new text file instead a real *.doc file.

Thanks all for yours suggestions.

This is my exact requirements,

1.I want to append some text in a file as first step,
2.And then want to create new page in the same file then will append some other text on that newly created page then will save the file as .doc in run time.

I am using

File.WriteAllText

and String builder to do that (Sample code given above)

Now the problem is can't create a new page in the file using File.Append or File.Write..
Can any one give some code to create a new page using this method?

Have you read my answer? No, because you still talking about writing to text file instead of doc file! Read my answer again, carefully.
