Answer 1

Not sure the API is exactly the same between different word versions.

If I can make a suggestion - use NetOffice( see link) instead of the office interop assemblies.

the API is the same as the Office Interop API, and it will work with all (current) versions of Microsoft Office.

NB - Here is a sample: http://netoffice.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Word_Example01

You should import the following namespaces to get it to work:

using NetOffice;
using Word = NetOffice.WordApi;
using NetOffice.WordApi.Enums;
using Office = NetOffice.OfficeApi;

Answer 2
