Delete row in existing table with specific string in it

[m.vanwinkelen@schoutenkampen.nl]

Hello,

I'm wondering how you could remove a specific row in an existing table in Word.

Imagine, in row five is a cell with the string 'Hello' in it.
How can I find this specific row and delete the row with that string in it?
My programming language is C# and I'm using Visual Studio 2015 Community.

Thanks in advance!

Dear Mark,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Here is sample code for your reference.

Code: Select all

            Document doc = new Document(@"F:\testing\Sample.docx");
            foreach (Section sec in doc.Sections)
            {
                //find the text
                TextSelection[] selections = doc.FindAllString("Hello", true, true);
                foreach (TextSelection selection in selections)
                {
                    TextRange tr = selection.GetAsOneRange();
                    Paragraph par = tr.OwnerParagraph;
                    if (par.IsInCell)
                    {
                            //par.Owner.Owner means table row
                            TableRow row = par.Owner.Owner as TableRow;
                            Table table = row.Owner as Table;
                            table.Rows.Remove(row);
                    }
                }
            }
            doc.SaveToFile("9966.docx", FileFormat.Docx);

Hope this can helps, if there is still issue, please let me know.

Hi Masehullah,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Below is the corresponding code in Java. Please download the latest Spire.Doc for Java Version:3.3.0 to have a try.
If there is any question, please provide your input file as well as your desired output. So that we could provide you with a corresponding solution.

Code: Select all

    Document doc = new Document("sample.docx");
    for (Object section : doc.getSections())
    {
        Section sec = (Section)section;
        //Find the text
        TextSelection[] selections = doc.findAllString("Hello", true, true);
        for(TextSelection selection : selections)
        {
            TextRange tr = selection.getAsOneRange();
            Paragraph par = tr.getOwnerParagraph();
            if (par.isInCell())
            {
                //Get table row of the paragraph
                TableRow row = (TableRow)par.getOwner().getOwner()  ;
                Table table = (Table)row.getOwner();
                table.getRows().remove(row);
            }

I am very happy to your quick responses
for our inquiries.
Thank U!

Dears, Kindly help me with this.
If someone wants to just use spire.doc and
Spire.xls on one java project without spire.office
Is there any other solution.
Kindly let me know.
Thank U!

Hi Masehullah,

Thanks for your response.
Since each of our products are independent and incompatible, using two products in the same project may cause compatibility issues. Thus, using our Spire.Office is the best solution for you.
Besides, in your case, if you'd like to purchase, you just need to purchase Spire.XLS and Spire.Doc but not need to purchase all the products of our Spire.Office.
Any question, just feel free to contact us.

Rachel
