Populating Tables in a Document-Level Customization

To create a table and populate it with document properties

  1. Set the range to the top of the document.

    Dim rng As Word.Range = Me.Range(Start:=0, End:=0)
    
    object start = 0, end = 0; 
    Word.Range rng = this.Range(ref start, ref end); 
    
  2. Insert a title for the table and include paragraph marks.

    With rng
        .InsertBefore("Document Statistics")
        .Font.Name = "Verdana"
        .Font.Size = 16
        .InsertParagraphAfter()
        .InsertParagraphAfter()
        .SetRange(rng.End, rng.End)
    End With
    
    rng.InsertBefore("Document Statistics"); 
    rng.Font.Name = "Verdana"; 
    rng.Font.Size = 16; 
    rng.InsertParagraphAfter(); 
    rng.InsertParagraphAfter(); 
    rng.SetRange(rng.End, rng.End); 
    
  3. Add the table to the document at the range.

    rng.Tables.Add(Range:=Me.Paragraphs.Item(2).Range, NumRows:=3, NumColumns:=2)
    
    rng.Tables.Add(this.Paragraphs[2].Range, 3, 2, ref missing, ref missing);
    
  4. Format the table and apply a style.

    With Me.Tables.Item(1)
        .Range.Font.Size = 12
        .Columns.DistributeWidth()
        .Style = "Table Professional"
    End With
    
    Word.Table tbl = this.Tables[1];
    tbl.Range.Font.Size = 12; 
    tbl.Columns.DistributeWidth(); 
    
    object styleName = "Table Professional";
    tbl.set_Style(ref styleName); 
    
  5. Insert the document properties into cells.

    With Me.Tables.Item(1)
        .Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Document Property"
        .Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Value"
    
        .Cell(2, 1).Range.Text = "Subject"
        .Cell(2, 2).Range.Text = CType(Me.BuiltInDocumentProperties, Office.DocumentProperties) _
            (Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertySubject).Value.ToString()
    
        .Cell(3, 1).Range.Text = "Author"
        .Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = CType(Me.BuiltInDocumentProperties, Office.DocumentProperties) _
            (Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertyAuthor).Value.ToString()
    End With
    
    tbl.Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Document Property";
    tbl.Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Value";
    
    tbl.Cell(2, 1).Range.Text = "Subject";
    tbl.Cell(2, 2).Range.Text = ((Office.DocumentProperties)(this.BuiltInDocumentProperties))
        [Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertySubject].Value.ToString();
    
    tbl.Cell(3, 1).Range.Text = "Author";
    tbl.Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = ((Office.DocumentProperties)(this.BuiltInDocumentProperties))
        [Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertyAuthor].Value.ToString();
    

The following example shows the complete procedure. To use this code, run it from the ThisDocument class in your project.

Private Sub CreateDocumentPropertyTable()
    Dim rng As Word.Range = Me.Range(Start:=0, End:=0)

    ' Insert a title for the table and paragraph marks.
    With rng
        .InsertBefore("Document Statistics")
        .Font.Name = "Verdana"
        .Font.Size = 16
        .InsertParagraphAfter()
        .InsertParagraphAfter()
        .SetRange(rng.End, rng.End)
    End With

    ' Add the table.
    rng.Tables.Add(Range:=Me.Paragraphs.Item(2).Range, NumRows:=3, NumColumns:=2)

    ' Format the table and apply a style.
    With Me.Tables.Item(1)
        .Range.Font.Size = 12
        .Columns.DistributeWidth()
        .Style = "Table Professional"
    End With

    ' Insert document properties into cells.
    With Me.Tables.Item(1)
        .Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Document Property"
        .Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Value"

        .Cell(2, 1).Range.Text = "Subject"
        .Cell(2, 2).Range.Text = CType(Me.BuiltInDocumentProperties, Office.DocumentProperties) _
            (Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertySubject).Value.ToString()

        .Cell(3, 1).Range.Text = "Author"
        .Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = CType(Me.BuiltInDocumentProperties, Office.DocumentProperties) _
            (Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertyAuthor).Value.ToString()
    End With
End Sub
private void CreateDocumentPropertyTable() 
{ 
    object start = 0, end = 0; 
    Word.Range rng = this.Range(ref start, ref end); 

    // Insert a title for the table and paragraph marks. 
    rng.InsertBefore("Document Statistics"); 
    rng.Font.Name = "Verdana"; 
    rng.Font.Size = 16; 
    rng.InsertParagraphAfter(); 
    rng.InsertParagraphAfter(); 
    rng.SetRange(rng.End, rng.End); 

    // Add the table.
    rng.Tables.Add(this.Paragraphs[2].Range, 3, 2, ref missing, ref missing);

    // Format the table and apply a style. 
    Word.Table tbl = this.Tables[1];
    tbl.Range.Font.Size = 12; 
    tbl.Columns.DistributeWidth(); 

    object styleName = "Table Professional";
    tbl.set_Style(ref styleName); 

    // Insert document properties into cells. 
    tbl.Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Document Property";
    tbl.Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Value";

    tbl.Cell(2, 1).Range.Text = "Subject";
    tbl.Cell(2, 2).Range.Text = ((Office.DocumentProperties)(this.BuiltInDocumentProperties))
        [Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertySubject].Value.ToString();

    tbl.Cell(3, 1).Range.Text = "Author";
    tbl.Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = ((Office.DocumentProperties)(this.BuiltInDocumentProperties))
        [Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertyAuthor].Value.ToString();
}

Populating Tables in an Application-Level Add-In

To create a table and populate it with document properties

  1. Set the range to the top of the document.

    Dim rng As Word.Range = Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Range( _
        Start:=0, End:=0)
    
    object start = 0, end = 0;
    Word.Document document = this.Application.ActiveDocument;
    Word.Range rng = document.Range(ref start, ref end);
    
  2. Insert a title for the table and include paragraph marks.

    With rng
        .InsertBefore("Document Statistics")
        .Font.Name = "Verdana"
        .Font.Size = 16
        .InsertParagraphAfter()
        .InsertParagraphAfter()
        .SetRange(rng.End, rng.End)
    End With
    
    rng.InsertBefore("Document Statistics");
    rng.Font.Name = "Verdana";
    rng.Font.Size = 16;
    rng.InsertParagraphAfter();
    rng.InsertParagraphAfter();
    rng.SetRange(rng.End, rng.End);
    
  3. Add the table to the document at the range.

    rng.Tables.Add(Range:=Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Paragraphs.Item(2).Range, _
        NumRows:=3, NumColumns:=2)
    
    rng.Tables.Add(document.Paragraphs[2].Range, 3, 2, ref missing, ref missing);
    
  4. Format the table and apply a style.

    With Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Tables.Item(1)
        .Range.Font.Size = 12
        .Columns.DistributeWidth()
        .Style = "Table Professional"
    End With
    
    Word.Table tbl = document.Tables[1];
    tbl.Range.Font.Size = 12;
    tbl.Columns.DistributeWidth();
    
    object styleName = "Table Professional";
    tbl.set_Style(ref styleName);
    
  5. Insert the document properties into cells.

    With Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Tables.Item(1)
        .Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Document Property"
        .Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Value"
    
        .Cell(2, 1).Range.Text = "Subject"
        .Cell(2, 2).Range.Text = CType( _
            Me.Application.ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties,  _
            Office.DocumentProperties) _
            (Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertySubject).Value.ToString()
    
        .Cell(3, 1).Range.Text = "Author"
        .Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = CType( _
            Me.Application.ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties,  _
            Office.DocumentProperties) _
            (Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertyAuthor).Value.ToString()
    End With
    
    tbl.Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Document Property";
    tbl.Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Value";
    
    tbl.Cell(2, 1).Range.Text = "Subject";
    tbl.Cell(2, 2).Range.Text = ((Office.DocumentProperties)(document.BuiltInDocumentProperties))
        [Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertySubject].Value.ToString();
    
    tbl.Cell(3, 1).Range.Text = "Author";
    tbl.Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = ((Office.DocumentProperties)(document.BuiltInDocumentProperties))
        [Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertyAuthor].Value.ToString();
    

The following example shows the complete procedure. To use this code, run it from the ThisAddIn class in your project.

Private Sub CreateDocumentPropertyTable()
    Dim rng As Word.Range = Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Range( _
        Start:=0, End:=0)

    ' Insert a title for the table and paragraph marks.

        .Font.Name = "Verdana"
        .Font.Size = 16
        .InsertParagraphAfter()
        .InsertParagraphAfter()
        .SetRange(rng.End, rng.End)
    End With

    ' Add the table.
    rng.Tables.Add(Range:=Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Paragraphs.Item(2).Range, _
        NumRows:=3, NumColumns:=2)

    ' Format the table and apply a style.
    With Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Tables.Item(1)
        .Range.Font.Size = 12
        .Columns.DistributeWidth()
        .Style = "Table Professional"
    End With

    ' Insert document properties into cells.
    With Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Tables.Item(1)
        .Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Document Property"
        .Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Value"

        .Cell(2, 1).Range.Text = "Subject"
        .Cell(2, 2).Range.Text = CType( _

            (Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertySubject).Value.ToString()

        .Cell(3, 1).Range.Text = "Author"
        .Cell(3, 2).Range.Text = CType( _
            Me.Application.ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties,  _
            Office.DocumentProperties) _
            (Word.WdBuiltInProperty.wdPropertyAuthor).Value.ToString()
    End With
End Sub
private void CreateDocumentPropertyTable()
{
    object start = 0, end = 0;
    Word.Document document = this.Application.ActiveDocument;
    Word.Range rng = document.Range(ref start, ref end);

    // Insert a title for the table and paragraph marks. 
    rng.InsertBefore("Document Statistics");
    rng.Font.Name = "Verdana";
    rng.Font.Size = 16;
    rng.InsertParagraphAfter();
    rng.InsertParagraphAfter();
    rng.SetRange(rng.End, rng.End);

    // Add the table.
    rng.Tables.Add(document.Paragraphs[2].Range, 3, 2, ref missing, ref missing);

    // Format the table and apply a style. 
    Word.Table tbl = document.Tables[1];
