Hi Dharmendra,

In our documentation, there are some examples (e.g. [1]) that demonstrate
how to access the contents of MS Office files.

Hope this helps,
Christian

First of all, it would be helpful if you used variable names that are
not misleading. Is $sourceDir supposed to point to a directory or a
ZIP archive?

Next, it would be awesome if you could iteratively simplify your
examples until the error disappears. This will increase chances for
helpful feedback from the list.

Files of type docx are archives in itself (once again, please see
original example). If your docx files are zipped, you need to
additionally unzip the result of your archive.

Hi Christian,
let $sourceDir := 'D:\2017\doctest\Elastic search.zip'
let $archive := file:read-binary($sourceDir)
for $entry in archive:entries($archive)
for $extract in fn:parse-xml(archive:extract-text($archive, $entry))
return $extract
but it throwing error : [experr:ARCH0004] String conversion: Invalid XML
character (#3).
