You need to add a reference to the MS office DLLs so that you can work with the office objects/APIs.

Right click on the Reference node of your .net solution......t hen
Add Reference------>on Add Reference window go to COM tab-----> locate Microsoft Office 11.0 Object Library------>Click Select button---the OK.....
it will add the reference of the required DLL to work with Microsoft WORD

There is Microsoft Office 12.0 Object Library and not what you have told me.did it do any different because it still give me tha same error?

The library you have is based on what version of office you have.
11 is very common. 12 is probably officexp?
At any rate, do some conscious thinking and use THAT one then.
These things can easily be looked up on google.
