Hello,
I am parsing the toc of a document, and I am doing this paragraph by paragraph. What I need is to get for each toc entry( paragraph) the information related to the range of that entry.

For instance, if I have something like this:
Introduction…1
Scope, Approach and Methods… 2
Information Sources…4
Etc.
How can I say “Introduction…1” has range 1 and “Information Sources…4” has range 2?

Thanks,
Mircea

Hello
Thanks for your request. I think in this case you can try using the following code:

// Open document
Document doc = new Document("C:\\Temp\\in.docx");
// Get all paragraphs
NodeCollection nodeColl = doc.getChildNodes(NodeType.PARAGRAPH, true);
// Loop through all paragraphs
for (int i = 0; i <nodeColl.getCount(); i++)
{
    switch (((Paragraph) nodeColl.get(i)).getParagraphFormat().getStyleIdentifier())
    {
        case StyleIdentifier.HEADING_1:
            System.out.println(((Paragraph) nodeColl.get(i)).toTxt() + "Range 1");
            break;
        case StyleIdentifier.HEADING_2:
            System.out.println(((Paragraph) nodeColl.get(i)).toTxt() + "Range 2");
            break;
        case StyleIdentifier.HEADING_3:
            System.out.println(((Paragraph) nodeColl.get(i)).toTxt() + "Range 3");
            break;
        default:
            // do nothing.
            break;
    }
}

Bets regards,

Hi there,
Thanks for your inquiry.
Just a quick alternation to Andrey’s code, I think in your case you are looking for the TOC styles and not the Heading styles. Please use StyleIdentifer.TOC1 instead of StyleIdentifier.Heading1 etc.
Thanks,
