It has been a while when I last posted something… and with this post I am making a comeback :D

While working with Word during these days, I encountered a scenario where, if I had an Alternate Data Stream (ADS) associated with Word 97-2003 format document and I converted it to the newest format (DOCX format) in Word 2007, the associated ADS would get lost and there is no way to recover it.

I have posted a programmatic solution to retain this ADS when a document gets converted at:
