I recently started working on the Open XML SDK 2.0.

I would like to know if there is any better documentation (instead of open xml sdk2.0 itself) or any other resource to learn working with the Open XML SDK?

For me, the best resource was the OpenXML Productivity Tool. It is in the OpenXMLSDKTool.msi installation package.

This tool lets you open any existing word or excel document and browse a C# source code representation of the document. It is a great way to learn how to perform some of the more complicated tasks.
