TX Text Control .NET 14 now supports Office Open XML


By David Worthington
July 10, 2008 — 
With the acceptance of Office Open XML (OOXML) as an ISO International standard, a component maker has added support for what must be the most widely used implementation of the format to its .NET word processing control.

The Imaging Source announced on Tuesday the North American release of an update to TX Text Control .NET 14 that adds support for creating, editing and saving documents into the Microsoft Word 2007 DOCX format.

The control comes in two varieties: standard, which costs $299 to upgrade, and professional, which costs $599 for an upgrade.

The professional edition can convert DOCX into Microsoft’s Word 97 and Word 2003 binary .DOC formats and Portable Document Format, said Ian Blackley, sales engineer for TX Text Control.

It is further differentiated from the standard edition by its support of document sections with various headers and footers, he said, as well as its Mail Merge component that populates Word templates with data pulled from a database.

DOCX is Microsoft’s implementation of Ecma International’s OOXML, which was created by Microsoft and donated to Ecma. Ecma accepted OOXML as a standard in December 2006.

After some revision and controversy, OOXML became an ISO International draft standard (ISO 29500) in April.
