Answer 1

I looks like you have the wrong node name in your XPath expression. Replace all occurrences of w:document with w:wordDocument. So it should be:

XmlNodeList node = xmlDoc.SelectNodes("//w:wordDocument/descendant::w:t|//w:wordDocument/descendant::w:p|//w:wordDocument/descendant::w:tab", nsmgr);
