I was given this solution to a problem I had, since I didn't know how to integrate MS Word with C#: http://www.dotnetperls.com/word

I looked into this solution, and I can't locate Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word in the reference list. I can't find it under COM Objects either. What am I missing? I am using Visual Studio Express 2012.

EDIT:

The answer to this question is that you HAVE to install MS Office on your computer.
