If you want just to open Ms Word and not interact with you can use the simple process class:

Process notePad = new Process();
notePad.StartInfo.FileName   = "notepad.exe"; 
notePad.StartInfo.Arguments = "me.txt";
notePad.Start();

Else read this

i tried your code but it gives me this error

The type or namespace name 'Process' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)


although i have addes the following using :

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using Microsoft.Office;
using Microsoft.Office.Core;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;


using Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;
using System.IO;

Process class belongs to System.Diagnostics namespace.
