I have a large word document which contains some headings. These headings have respectively one table as a child. (depicted in the screenshot)
Therefore I used the Microsoft Interop.Word library. My code looks like this. How can I get the children of a heading paragraph? Maybe there's a better way of doing this.
Application word = new Application();
Document doc = new Document();
object missing = System.Type.Missing;
doc = word.Documents.Open(ref m_FileName,
ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);
foreach (Paragraph paragraph in doc.Paragraphs)
{
Style style = paragraph.get_Style() as Style;
string text = paragraph.Range.Text;
paragraph.Range.Tables // does not get the table under the paragraph
}
I'd do it using ranges. Find first title, find next title (or anything you can use as an end of the chapter and get the content in between:
Range r1 = doc.Content;
Range r2 = doc.Content;
r1.Find.Execute("Heading 1");
r2.Find.Execute("Heading 2");
Range chapter = doc.Range(r1.Start, r2.Start);
//Console.WriteLine(chapter.Text);
foreach (Table t in chapter.Tables)
{
foreach(Row r in t.Rows)
{
foreach (Cell c in r.Cells)
{
//Console.WriteLine(c.Range.Text);
}
}
}
