In your Silverlight application, please add the required assemblies in order to use DocIO. Refer here for assemblies required.
Loading the document
The following code example illustrates how to load the Word document by using URI in Silverlight.
//Load the Word document as url
Uri uri = new Uri(@"/Resources/data/Sample.docx", UriKind.Relative);
Stream docStream = ResourceManager.Load(uri);
//Creates an empty Word document instance
WordDocument document = new WordDocument();
//Loads or opens an existing word document through Open method of WordDocument class
document.Open(docStream, FormatType.Docx);
MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();
//Save the document
document.SaveAsDocx();
//Close the document
document.Close();

{
public static void SaveAsDoc(this WordDocument document)

{
Filter = "Doc files (*.doc)|*.doc",
DefaultExt = ".doc",
FilterIndex = 1
};
if (sfd.ShowDialog() == true)
{
using (Stream stream = sfd.OpenFile())
{
document.Save(stream, FormatType.Doc);
}
