Generating Dynamic table from predefine table in word template

Hi Aspose Team,
I have attatched 2 files one is Template.doc and another is Output.doc. My requirnment is as follows.

  1. I have a predefine word template with some tables. I want to add some existing rows of particular table and append to last of that table with 2 blank rows. 1 row for value and 2 is for making space between the current table and below table. you can see the both Template and Output.doc as an example what I exactly need.
  2. Once all the tables are generated, how can I set the values in column for these table through code. I don’t want to use the merge field concept here. eg:- if you see the attatchment, all headings have background color which will treat as headers for table. I want to set the values below to heading rows through code.

I will be very thankful to you If you can show me the code for my above requinment.
Thanks
Deepak

Hi Deepak,

Thanks for your inquiry.

Please use the Row.Clone method method to create a duplicate of the Row and insert it at the end of Table using Table.AppendChild method. Please check the following code example for your kind reference.

You can insert/modify text inside table’s cell. Please check the following highlighted code snippet.

Hope this helps you. Please let us know if you have any more queries.

var doc = new Document(MyDir + "Template.doc");
// Get the first table in the document
Table table = doc.FirstSection.Body.Tables[0];
// Clone the row at index 3
Row clonedRow = (Row)table.Rows[3].Clone(true);
// Append the row at the end of table
table.AppendChild(clonedRow);
// insert empty row at the end of table
Row lastrow = (Row)table.LastRow.Clone(true);
table.AppendChild(lastrow);
foreach (Cell cell in lastrow.Cells)
{
    cell.RemoveAllChildren();
    cell.EnsureMinimum();
    cell.CellFormat.ClearFormatting();
    // Set the value in empty cell
    cell.FirstParagraph.Runs.Add(new Run(doc, "New Row"));
}
doc.Save(MyDir + "Out.doc");
