How to update Include Text field in Word document using WinForms DocIO ?
No, it is not possible to directly update the Include Text field in a Word document using Essential® DocIO. However, you can create a helper class to explicitly update the Include Text field in your sample application using Essential® DocIO.
The following sample demonstrates how to implement a helper class to update the Include Text field using Essential® DocIO.
This sample contains a helper class, “IncludeTextFieldUpdateHelper.cs,” which internally updates the Include Text field.
The following tables contain the properties and method descriptions of the IncludeTextFieldUpdateHelper class.
Properties Table:
Property Name | Type | Description |
MainDocument | WordDocument | Gets or sets the Word document instance which contains the Include Text field. |
MainDocumentFileName | string | Gets or sets the file name of the word document with full path. |
IsUpdateSpecifiedBookmark | bool | Gets or sets a value indicating whether to replace the Include Text field with specified bookmark contents or the whole document content. |
If the bookmark defined in the Include Text field is not valid, the error message “Error! BookmarkName not defined” will replace the Include Text field instead.
Method Table:
Method Name | Return Type | Description |
UpdateIncludeTextField() | void | Updates the Include Text field in the Word document. |
If Include Text field does not contain any valid file name, then error message “Error! Not a valid filename.” will be replaced instead of Include Text field.
