@ASHPoseUser,

Thanks for your inquiry.

Unfortunately, you cannot add bookmarks using LINQ reporting engine. Could you please share complete detail of your use case along with input and expected output documents. We will then provide you more information on it.

Yes, you can add bookmark for table in an existing document.

  1. Please move the cursor to the first cell of table and call DocumentBuilder.StartBookmark method.
  2. Please move the cursor to the last cell of table and call DocumentBuilder.EndBookmark method to insert the bookmark.

Please refer to the following articles.

Thanks Tahir. I was able to figure out my second requirement.

As for my first question:

  1. I have a list of objects
  2. I need to see the detail of each object in a table in one page only i.e. one object per page
  3. Create a table of content of the list of objects.

To do step #3, I have to add a bookmark to each record and then call “doc.updateFields()” method.

Currently, I have managed this by looping through the table collection(after calling the ReportEngine.BuildReport() method) and adding the bookmarks.

Thanks.
