Hi

I have around 150 gig of rtf and doc files I want to convert to rtf. I've
seen software packages which will do this for me, but can I use the
microsoft word objects to do it within .net?

Visual Studio Tools for the Microsoft Office
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/office/officetools.aspx) might help.

and of course you can also code directly, without VSTO, if you are that sort
of developer, using the Office PIAs.

There is a SaveAs() method on the Document interface, in which you can
specify the desired output format of the document to be saved.

There is an enum called Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdSaveFormat , one of
the values of that enum is wdFormatRTF , which allows you to save as RTF.

So, in VB.NET:
WordDoc.SaveAs("MyNewDocument.rtf",
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdSaveFormat.wdFormatRTF )

In C#, I think you will have to sprinkle a few
System.Reflection.Missing.Value in there. . .
