.net - Populate Table in Word document template with table using C#

Question

I created a .dot, and put a simple table. The fields, TESTE_1 and TESTE_2 are from "Quick Parts >> Field " I want to populate this table from database (external files, or whatever) using C# Code.

I put a "MergeField" in the table cells (Test1). There a lot of codes showing how to "find and replace" these bookmarks, But how to fill a table I not found, like:

Column1 | Column2 Foo | Bar Zee | Top.

Answer 1

Since your main problem is how to locate the table in the document, then work with it:

1. Select the table and insert a Bookmark around it. This will allow your code to pick up the table directly:

   Word.Table tbl = Doc.Bookmarks.get_item("Name").Range.Tables[1];
