Inserting content with quotes in Mail Merge when using InsertHtml

Aspose.Words Product Family

I have content that is being merged into a Mail Merge template. This content will sometimes contain quotes, and will also sometimes be inside an IF statement. I have fond the following solution which will replace the quotes with the { QUOTE 34 } merge field.

Node fieldNode = field.Remove();
Builder.MoveTo(fieldNode);
Builder.InsertHtml(fieldValue.ToString());

I need to somehow use this command but at the same time replace all quotes with { QUOTE 34 } (or something along those lines)

Hi there,

Thanks for your patience.

You can achieve your requirement by implementing IReplacingCallback interface. Please use the same approach shared at following documentation link to find text and insert the { QUOTE 34 } field. See the highlighted code snippet below.
http://www.aspose.com/docs/display/wordsnet/How+to+Find+and+Highlight+Text

You can use the same approach to replace “ and ” with { QUOTE 34 } in whole document. Hope this helps you.

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

if (html.Contains("“"))

{

html = html.Replace("“", "QUOTE34").Replace("”", "QUOTE34"); ;
