We have a smart-client WinForms app that uses DSOFramer to embed MS Word as

I've been trying to find a way to host a 'view' of a Word document in
a Windows Forms app. Ideally I'd like it to be just the document; no
controls or toolbars, and certainly no editing functionality. It seems
that the recommended way is to us the WebBrowser control, and to be

I found a post in January 2006 by "Scott" titled "Reg-free COM problem".
