This article deals with how to create and add content and image simultaneously into a newly created document will be explained. After a lot of R&D I found to add the images to a specific position along with the content using file upload control to implement. Microsoft .Net given wonderful classes to implement the functionality to Create Microsoft Word document, Add content from textbox and Add Image by using File Upload control.
