Inserting Tables

Tables have default formatting. Defaults can be overridden with column definitions. Here is an example of inserting a table into a Word Document:

C#
//To run this example code, create a word document called SimpleTable.docx with the text [SimpleTable] in the document WordReportsGenerator generator = new WordReportsGenerator(); //Trial Mode //WordReportsGenerator generator = new WordReportsGenerator("place user name here", "place license key here"); //License Mode const string sourceDocumentPath = @"Test Documents\SimpleTable.docx"; const string outputDocumentPath = "ReplaceSimpleTable.docx"; DataTable simpleTable = new DataTable(); simpleTable.Columns.Add("FirstName", typeof(string)); simpleTable.Columns.Add("LastName", typeof(string)); simpleTable.Rows.Add("Greg", "Finzer"); simpleTable.Rows.Add("Oreo", "Finzer"); Dictionary<string, ReplacementItem> replacement = new Dictionary<string, ReplacementItem> { { "[SimpleTable]", new ReplacementItem {Value = simpleTable} } }; generator.GenerateWordReport(sourceDocumentPath, outputDocumentPath, replacement);

//To run this example code, create a word document called SimpleTable.docx with the text [SimpleTable] in the document
 
WordReportsGenerator generator = new WordReportsGenerator(); //Trial Mode
//WordReportsGenerator generator = new WordReportsGenerator("place user name here", "place license key here"); //License Mode
const string sourceDocumentPath = @"Test Documents\SimpleTable.docx";
const string outputDocumentPath = "ReplaceSimpleTable.docx";
DataTable simpleTable = new DataTable();
simpleTable.Columns.Add("FirstName", typeof(string));
simpleTable.Columns.Add("LastName", typeof(string));
simpleTable.Rows.Add("Greg", "Finzer");
simpleTable.Rows.Add("Oreo", "Finzer");
Dictionary<string, ReplacementItem> replacement =
new Dictionary<string, ReplacementItem>
{
{
"[SimpleTable]",
new ReplacementItem {Value = simpleTable}
}
};
 
generator.GenerateWordReport(sourceDocumentPath,
outputDocumentPath,
replacement);

VB.NET
