This article shows how to create a Word document using C# and Office 2013.
Step 2: Double-click the button control and go to the code window.
Step 3: Add a reference for "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word" as shown in the following image.
Step 4: Copy and paste the following code to generate the Word document.
The code is self-explanatory and the required comments are added wherever they are required.
