C# – Open Word Document in Browser with Inline Editing

Since Enum Type implements IConvertible interface, a better implementation should be something like this:

public T GetEnumFromString<T>(string value) where T : struct, IConvertible
{
   if (!typeof(T).IsEnum) 
   {
      throw new ArgumentException("T must be an enumerated type");
   }

   //...
}

This will still permit passing of value types implementing IConvertible. The chances are rare though.

Here is the best way, for me, to add code inside word:

1. Go to Insert tab, Text section, click Object button (it's on the right)
2. Choose OpenDocument Text which will open a new embedded word document
3. Copy and paste your code from Visual Studio / Eclipse inside this embedded word page
4. Save and close

Advantages

The result looks very nice. Here are the advantages of this method:

• The code keeps its original layout and colors
• The code is separated from the rest of the document, as if it was a picture or a chart
• Spelling errors won't be highlighted in the code (this is cool !)

And it takes only few seconds.
