C# How to open doc/docx in Word application to a specified page

Question

I want to open a doc/docx file to a specific page using Word. Currently I use Process.Start() and can't figure it out with what to replace it for this job.

The purpose is just for viewing the document. I have a database based on fileLocation/pageNumber and this function must open the file directly to that page.

I would appreciate any solution/alternative. Thank you!

you could give [this](https://www.nuget.org/packages/DocX/1.0.0.19) library a go, might be easier. — will, Oct 14 '16 at 13:40
The Document.Goto method https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff836585(v=office.14).aspx is the way I'd go. — Duston, Oct 14 '16 at 13:52
