Hello Dave,
1. How can I determine if the caret is in a table?
applicationObject.Selection.Range returns the current caret. It has a
method 'InRange' which can help to determine whether the range is in a
table:
for (int i = 1; i <= applicationObject.ActiveDocument.Tables.Count; i++)
{
if
(applicationObject.Selection.Range.InRange(applicationObject.ActiveDocument.
Tables
.Range))
{
MessageBox.Show("In Range");
}
}
2. How can I determine the row & column of the cell the caret is in?
To determine the row and column of the cell the caret is in, we could
iterate the cells of a table to find the target cell with the method
'InRange'. For instance,
Word.Table table = applicationObject.ActiveDocument.Tables;
for (int j = 1; j <= table.Rows.Count; j++)
{
for (int k = 1; k <= table.Columns.Count; k++)
{
if (applicationObject.Selection.Range.InRange(table.Cell(j,
k).Range))
{
MessageBox.Show("row: " + j.ToString() + " column: " +
k.ToString());
break;
}
}
}
3. How can I get the text for a cell in a table?
ThisDocument.Tables(tableIndex).Cell(rowIndex, columnIndex).Range.Text
4. How can I insert text at the start of a specific cell in a table?
ThisDocument.Tables(tableIndex).Cell(rowIndex,
columnIndex).Range.InsertBefore "just a try"
Please let me know if you have any other concerns, or need anything else.
Sincerely,
