宋史卷二百七十四 列传第三十三:
  王文宝,开封阳武人,以任子补殿直。太平兴国初,累迁至军器库使。尝使契丹。会陈洪进献漳、泉地,以文宝监泉州兵。群盗大起,文宝与转运使杨克让、知州乔惟岳共讨平之。以功领妫州刺史,加内弓箭库使。二年,京西转运使程能议开新河,自襄、汉至京师,引白河水注焉,以通湘、潭之漕。诏发唐、邓、汝、颍、许、蔡、陈、郑丁夫数万赴其役,又发诸州兵万人助之。命文宝与六宅使李继隆、作坊副使李仁祐、刘承珪分往护作。既而地高水下,不能通,卒堙废焉。雍熙四年,改东上阁门使,历知泾、延二州。会辽人寇通远军,命文宝率师致讨,还迁判四方馆事。
  文宝历内职三十年,雅好言外事,太祖、太宗颇信任之,中外咸畏其口。出为高阳关兵马钤辖,淳化二年,卒于官。
