Hi Vuong,

Thanks for your inquiry.
You can use following code snippet to remove SDTs from your document.

private void RemoveSdt(Document doc)
{
    // Get collection of SDT from the document
    NodeCollection nodes = doc.GetChildNodes(NodeType.StructuredDocumentTag, true, true);
    // Loop while there is SDT in the document
    while (nodes.Count> 0)
    {
        StructuredDocumentTag sdt = (StructuredDocumentTag) nodes[0];
        // Get parent node of SDT.
        // We should move all content from SDT to its parent to preserve documents content.
        CompositeNode parent = sdt.ParentNode;
        // Loop throuht all nodes inside SDT and move its convent to parent node
        while (sdt.HasChildNodes) parent.InsertBefore(sdt.FirstChild, sdt);
        // Remove SDT.
        sdt.Remove();
    }
}

In case of any ambiguity, please let me know.

Hi there,

Thanks for your inquiry.

Please see the code below to remove all content controls from a document.

foreach(StructuredDocumentTag tag in  doc.GetChildNodes(NodeType.StructuredDocumentTag, true))
     tag.RemoveSelfOnly();

Thanks,

RemoveSelfOnly() removes the content in some instances. Not sure of the pattern.
