  7. Hi,

    I have used above method in my MVC application with the help of MS OpenXML documentation to convert my docx report into html file with images for preview purpose. I have implemented above logic to embed images into html. But its still its not showing the images in html. Path of image file and everything is fine but after opening the html in browser, it just displays image box without image. I tried checking its path by inspecting it in console window. It is giving error in console window. Console window shows error: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()

  8. Hello,
    I have a problem with the code and more specifically with this line:
    Dim html As XElement = HtmlConverter.ConvertToHtml(wDoc:=doc, htmlConverterSettings:=settings)

    Every time I get the error: System.ArgumentNullException : 'La valeur ne peut pas être null.
    Nom du paramètre : part'

    I can't find any solution, can you help me please? Thank you in advance.
    Best regards,

    Claude

  10. Thank you for the code.

    I was able to arrive and parse the doc well, but I couldn't retrieve the images, I didn't know how to build the image handler.

    Your example worked first time, then I picked the handler and put it on my code saving the images on the db....it worked like a charm
