I have a web app that allows user to upload doc or docx files and converts it to HTML. I have CFMX 7 in a unix environment. Is there a custom tag that I could use for this conversion? I tried the cfx_word2html tag .. it converts .doc not docx. Please let me know. Thanks...

I've been pleased with Aspose's Words component. I use the .NET version, but a Java version is also available. You could try using CFOBJECT plus the Words Java component to handle document conversion on your server.

Not that I am aware of. If anyone else knows of one, I too would be interested.

The key to handling Office docs is via the Apache POI tools/product, Ray Camden has a (typically) excellent post on thi, with examples, instructions, etc.

Thanks for the link. This could be a good start for converting .doc or docx to html. But wondering about how the html formating would work?

Any ideas?

Thnx

I have not used the save as HTML feature before but it looks like you have some options to control the HTML results.
