Remarks

You can use this LoadDocument method overload to load a document stored in an external database.

If a document has a different format than the format parameter specifies, the InvalidFormatException event fires.

Tip

Use the RichEditDocumentServer.DocumentLoaded, RichEditControl.DocumentLoaded (WinForms), or RichEditControl.DocumentLoaded (WPF) event to determine when you can safely modify the document model. Handle the DocumentLayout.DocumentFormatted event to check document layout-related data and objects.
