Creating Single Page Documents

At its simplest level, the .NET Word Reports Library allows you to perform a search and replace of text inside a word document. To create a single page report such as an invoice, receipt, packing slip, create a word document and then put in text to replace. Create a dictionary of replacment items. See the demo which is included with the install, it shows an example of creating an invoice.

C#
//To run this example code, create a word document called ExampleTemplate.docx with the text [ReplaceMe] 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\ExampleTemplate.docx"; const string outputDocumentPath = "ExampleOutput.docx"; Dictionary<string, ReplacementItem> replacement = new Dictionary<string, ReplacementItem> { { "[ReplaceMe]", new ReplacementItem { Value = "This is a test" } } }; generator.GenerateWordReport(sourceDocumentPath, outputDocumentPath, replacement);

//To run this example code, create a word document called ExampleTemplate.docx with the text [ReplaceMe] 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\ExampleTemplate.docx";
const string outputDocumentPath = "ExampleOutput.docx";
 
Dictionary<string, ReplacementItem> replacement =
    new Dictionary<string, ReplacementItem>
        {
            {
                "[ReplaceMe]",
                new ReplacementItem { Value = "This is a test" }
            }
        };
 
generator.GenerateWordReport(sourceDocumentPath,
                              outputDocumentPath,
                              replacement);
