Add a row to an MS Word table using Microsoft.Office.Interop

Question

I have a word template with a table that I am populating from a list of strings that I split using tab characters.

I do not know how many lines of text I will have as it will vary.

So I am adding a row programmatically before iterating through my loop like this:

 oWordDoc.Tables[2].Rows.Add(oWordDoc.Tables[2].Rows[1]);

Unfortunately it is adding the row before rather than after the current row.

How can I change my code to always have an empty row added after the current row?

Answer 1

Leave the parameter value as a missing value for the Row.Add Function

object oMissing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;        
// get your table or create a new one like this
// you can start with two rows. 
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Table myTable = oWordDoc.Add(myRange, 2,numberOfColumns)
int rowCount = 2; 
//add a row for each item in a collection.
foreach( string s in collectionOfStrings)
{
   myTable.Rows.Add(ref oMissing);
   // do something to the row here. add strings etc. 
   myTable.Rows[rowCount].Cells[1].Range.Text = "Content of column 1";
   myTable.Rows[rowCount].Cells[2].Range.Text = "Content of column 2";
   myTable.Rows[rowCount].Cells[3].Range.Text = "Content of column 3";
   //etc
   rowCount++;
}

I have not tested this code but should work...

Answer 2

I found it, it should be:

Object oMissing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
oWordDoc.Tables[2].Rows.Add(ref oMissing);
