this is my code:
' Add a new paragraph to the third cell in the first row of the table for the ReviewDate value
Dim newParagraph7 As Word.Paragraph = oTableHeader.Cell(1, 3).Range.Paragraphs.Add()
newParagraph7.Range.Text = "Review Date: " & ReviewDate
newParagraph7.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphRight
' Add a new paragraph (newParagraph8) to the header range
Dim newParagraph8 As Word.Paragraph = headerRange.Paragraphs.Add()
newParagraph8.Range.Text = "Page Number: "
' Align the new paragraph to the right
newParagraph8.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphRight
' Insert the field code for the current page number
Dim pageNumberField As Word.Field = newParagraph8.Range.Fields.Add(Range:=newParagraph8.Range, Type:=Word.WdFieldType.wdFieldPage, Text:="\* ARABIC")
pageNumberField.Code.Text = pageNumberField.Code.Text & " \* MERGEFORMAT"
' Repaginate the document
doc.Repaginate()
My problem is that I want to be able to show page numbers exactly in the paragraph after newParagraph7. But this code is shown outside the table and somewhere else. And I can't get it into oTableHeader.Cell(1, 3)
This code is supposed to show a table in the header of a word file created by my software. And my goal is to show the number of pages dynamically by build-in Word with Office.Interop
Have you tried Dim newParagraph8 As Word.Paragraph = oTableHeader.Cell(1, 3).Range.Paragraphs.Add()
to ensure that both the Review Date and the Page Number are within the same cell.
Dim cellRange As Word.Range = oTableHeader.Cell(1, 3).Range
Dim ReviewDate As String = DateTime.Now.ToString("d MMMM yyyy")
Dim newParagraph7 As Word.Paragraph = cellRange.Paragraphs.Add()
newParagraph7.Range.Text = "Review Date: " & ReviewDate
newParagraph7.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphRight
' Move the range to the end of the cell to add the next paragraph
cellRange.Collapse(Word.WdCollapseDirection.wdCollapseEnd)
Dim newParagraph8 As Word.Paragraph = cellRange.Paragraphs.Add()
newParagraph8.Range.Text = "Page Number: "
newParagraph8.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphRight
cellRange.Collapse(Word.WdCollapseDirection.wdCollapseEnd)
Dim pageNumberField As Word.Field = cellRange.Fields.Add(Range:=cellRange, Type:=Word.WdFieldType.wdFieldPage)
pageNumberField.Code.Text = pageNumberField.Code.Text & " \* MERGEFORMAT"
