Another query i am having regarding populating table in word doc. i am using
doc.getMailMerge().executeWithRegions("Student", student); to populate the table. here in executeWithRegions
method it takes resultset as an argument. can we populate the table without using resulset.
Could you please attach your template here for testing? We will then provide you with some feedback regarding the issue. Please note that the Java platform is currently being syncronized with the .NET platform. When complete all the functionality avaliable in .NET will be avaliable in Java. Most likely the issue you are experiencing will be fixed with this release. This is due sometime around August.
Regarding your question on mail merge, Yes this is possible. Although from your example it sounds as if simple mail merge (Execute) would suffice. If you haven't looked into this yet, please find the information here on how you can execute a mail merge using simply arrays of strings.
If however, you do require mail merging with regions, you can define a custom class to pass to execute the mail merge with instead of using ResultSet. Please see the details here, including some examples on implementing the IMailMergeDataSource interface.
If you require any further help, please feel free to ask.
