Reading the table of content with parent child relations in Dot Net

[Charan_Reddy]

Hi,

I have a requirement of reading the table of content from word document and store the table of content in a data table and display using a Tree View using parent and child relation same like table of content in word document.

Here i am unable to get the parent and child relations to make a tree view.

How to get the parent and child relations?

Thanks & Regards

Charan.

Hi Charan,

Thanks for your inquiry. Well, in your case, every node of TOC field is represented by a HYPERLINK field. When you click on a TOC item, the control jumps to a particular location in your document pointed by a hidden Bookmark. I think, you can implement the following workflow to achieve what you’re looking for:

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + @“TOC_Document.docx”);

foreach (Field field in doc.Range.Fields)

{

if (field.Type.Equals(FieldType.FieldHyperlink))

{

FieldHyperlink hyperlink = (FieldHyperlink)field;

if (hyperlink.SubAddress.StartsWith("_Toc"))

{

Paragraph tocItem = (Paragraph)field.Start.GetAncestor(NodeType.Paragraph);

if (tocItem != null)

{

// do something

if (tocItem.ParagraphFormat.LeftIndent == 12)

Console.Write("\t");

Console.WriteLine(tocItem.ToString(SaveFormat.Text));

}

}

}

}

I hope, this helps.

Best regards,
