Extracts an attachment from an owner's file stored on a disk, and saves it to an output stream.
public void ExtractAttachment(
string fileName,

public:
void ExtractAttachment(
String^ fileName,
Int32 attachmentNumber,

def ExtractAttachment(self,fileName,attachmentNumber,outputStream):
fileName
Owner's file name.
attachmentNumber
1-based attachment number to extract. This value must be between 1 and the number of attachments in the file.
outputStream
Stream that will contain the attachment file data.
Call CodecsImageInfo.AttachmentCount to quickly determine the number of attachments found a file.
Call ReadAttachments to obtain the number and properties of all attachments found a file.
