Above example is part of DocX Examples and can be found in DocX source package under Examples \ Program.cs. This example uses RelativeDirectory.cs class. It's required for the code sample to work and are included in the sources of DocX.

Keep that in mind when working with the code to either download the DocX package or change the code appropriately. Below you can find Relative Directory class just in case you have no access to sources.
