Remarks

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

Tip

Use the RichEditControl.DocumentLoaded event to determine when you can safely modify the document model. Handle the DocumentLayout.DocumentFormatted event to check document layout-related data and objects.
