SharePoint 2007 (MOSS/WSS) - Adding header and footer in Word Document (.docx) with ItemAdded Event Receiver using OpenXML

I used OpenXML to add the two metadata column values - document name as the header and modified date as footer while someone upload a document in document library. Please include a reference of  WindowsBase and DocumentFormat.OpenXml in the project. WindowsBase is included in .Net framework 3.0/3.5 and you have to download DocumentFormat.OpenXml separately.

Here is the code:

using System;

using System.Security.Permissions;

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

using Microsoft.SharePoint;

using System.IO;

using System.IO.Packaging;

using DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Packaging;

using System.Xml;

using System.Collections.Generic;
