Convert
Converts a document to text, RTF, or HTML format.
Before you convert a document, you must open it by using the Open method. To make sure that the entire document is opened before the document is converted, set the OPENWaitOnOpen property to TRUE
. Use the CanSaveAs property to check whether the document is completely processed and is ready for conversion.
To convert a document without viewing it, set the OPENMode property to 2
(open without generating a view).

Example
The following code converts a file to RTF:
Function ConvertToRTF(FileName As String, TargetFile As String) As Boolean
KeyView.OPENMode = 2
nRet = KeyView.Open(FileName)
If (nRet = 1) Then
bRet = KeyView.Convert("rtf",TargetFile)
End If
bRet2 = KeyView.Close
ConvertToRTF = bRet
End Function
In this example, OPENMode
is set to 2
to prevent a view of the document.
