Merging paragraphs

I want to use DocumentBuilder to add some HTML in these numbers. So I use MoveToMergeField to move the builder to these nodes. But when I use InsertHtml the inserted html goes into the next paragraph as it has paragraph tags in it (text
). I don’t want it to go to the next paragraph. Is there a way to do it without modifying the HTML, I can’t change the HTML in any case?

Thanks in advance

Hi
Thanks for your request. I think, in your case, you can insert your HTML into a separate paragraph, then merge all generated paragraph into one and then copy content form the temporary document into your document. I created a simple code example for you:

[Test]
public void Test001()
{
    Document doc = new Document(@"Test001\in.doc");
    DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
    // Move DocumentBuilder to mergefield
    builder.MoveToMergeField("test");
    // Insert HTML.
    InsertHtml(builder, "<p>This is the first paragraph</p><p>This is another paragraph</p>"); 
    doc.Save(@"Test001\out.doc");
}

private static void InsertHtml(DocumentBuilder builder, string html)
{
    // Create a temporary ocumentBuidler.
    DocumentBuilder tmpBuilder = new DocumentBuilder();
    tmpBuilder.InsertHtml(html);
    // Merge content of all paragraphs in the temp document into one.
    Paragraph firstParagraph = tmpBuilder.Document.FirstSection.Body.FirstParagraph;
    while (firstParagraph.NextSibling != null && firstParagraph.NextSibling.NodeType == NodeType.Paragraph)
    {
        Paragraph nextParagraph = (Paragraph) firstParagraph.NextSibling;
        while (nextParagraph.HasChildNodes)
            firstParagraph.AppendChild(nextParagraph.FirstChild);
        nextParagraph.Remove();
    }
    // Insert content of the first paragraph of temp document into the destination document.
    foreach(Node childNode in firstParagraph.ChildNodes)
    builder.InsertNode(builder.Document.ImportNode(childNode, true, ImportFormatMode.KeepSourceFormatting));
}

Hope this helps.
Best regards,
