how to process multiple MS Word into Rapidminer?
Dear All
I want to process multiple MS Word files.
If I use 'Process Documents from Files' as per the tutorial, the file content looks corrupted. For example, file name: helloworld.docx, with the content of only 2 words: hello world. Rapidminer will produce a trunk of unrelated words as output.
I understand I can use 'read office file' to read the MS Word documents into exact content, however, this extension can use for 1 file at a time only.
How do I mingle between these 2 processing tools or if there are additional tools I could use? Because either I do 'read office file -> process documents from files -> res' OR 'process documents from files -> read office file -> rex' does not seems computer logic.
My ideal objective is to load a batch of MS Word files for Readability analysis. Such as using SMOG, FOG etc indexes to check the readability of mass contents, so I can gather more data samples for a university research paper.
Thanks a lot!

how do i setup the parameters for 'loop file' operator to load multiple MS Word into Rapidminer?
The setting i did is 'loop file' - 'read office file' - rest
Loop file:
Directory: C:/Users/user/Downloads/t1
filter type: Glob
Filter by glob: .*doc
Enable parallel execution
if filter by glob is .*doc, "not enough iterations: the minimum number of iterations must not be smaller than 1.
if filter by glob is: *.doc, error type: input is missing, the previous operator loop file did not product any output.
There are 3 files in the t1 folder, 2 .doc file and a .docx file
I also looked up on google how to use Loop File, however the 2018 youtube videos parameter setting seems no longer valid with the current version....
Looking forward for your replies
With thanks!
