MoveToHeaderFooter causes an unwanted carriage return character

Hi.

We’re building up a document from scratch, and I’ve noticed that an unwanted “\r” is added to the header, footer and body of each section. After carefully stepping through my code, I finally found the culprit.

When I’m on the _docBuilder.MoveToHeaderFooter(HeaderFooterType.HeaderFirst); line, and run _docBuilder.CurrentParagraph.GetText() in the watch window, I get “\f”. When I execute the MoveToHeaderFooter line, and rerun the watch window statement, I get “\f\r”.

From my fiddling around, I get the impression that the docBuilder does not store this character, and only adds it when you output it as text.

I’m looking for a way to either prevent this characted from being added in the first place, or, barring that, some way of removing it after I called “MoveToHeaderFooter”.

Thanks.

Hi

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, we’re a bit under pressure right now, and this is not a priority issue, so I won’t be able to do this right now.

I will probably have some time to revisit the issue early next year.

Hi.

I did the test application as you asked, and I found that, though it does add a carriage return, it always sits at the end of the content.

After some more investigation, I discovered that the method I use to implement TabStop changes always insert a new paragraph, and this method gets called whenever I insert net content.

The error was therefore my own. Sorry for wasting your time.
