create a table name dynamically

[paolagumi]

Hello,
I have to create more than one table in a section document.
The first oneshould be MyTable0, then MyTable1 ... and so on.
The number of tables I have to create is a int32 variable, 'NofTab'.

Example: if NofTable = 3,
I have to do:
Dim MyTable0 as Table.....
Dim MyTable1 as Table.....
Dim MyTable2 as Table.....
So the strings 'MyTable0', 'MyTable1' and 'MyTable2' would be in a variable...
is it possible?

Thank you,
Paola

Dear paolagumi,

Thanks for your inquiry.
C# is strongly typed so you can't create variables dynamically. You could use an array but a better C# way would be to use a Dictionary as follows.

Code: Select all

        Document doc = new Document();
        Section sec = doc.AddSection();
        int NofTable = 3;
        Dictionary<string, Table> myTable = new Dictionary<string, Table>();
        for (int i = 0; i < NofTable; i++)
        {
            myTable.Add("MyTable" + i, sec.AddTable(true));
            myTable["MyTable" + i].ResetCells(2,3);
            sec.AddParagraph();
        }
