Font Size via C#

Prabhat Khadka

I have created a table(in MsWord using C#) with multiple rows and 2 columns. I have inserted text inside each column. For all cases there's one common text, "Welcome to XYZ Company". Now, my problem is, I want its size to be 12 while rest of the text size should be 21 pt. I assigned 21pt size for rest of the text, but want to know a way to insert another text in the same table with different size. My code is below:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Table tbl1;

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Range wordRange = doc.Content;

tbl1 = doc.Content.Tables.Add(wordRange, 3, 2, ref objMiss, ref objMiss);//3 columns, 2 rows

tbl1.Borders.Enable = 1;

int cc = 1;

for (int r = 1; r <= TotalNumber; r++)

{

for (int c = 1; c <= 2; c++)

{

if (cc < UserNameOne.Length) //UserNameOne is a String Collection

{

tbl1.Cell(r, c).Range.Text = "Welcome to XYZ Company\n" + "User Name:" + UserNameOne[cc] + "\n" ;//I want the size of "Welcome to XYZ Company" to be 12 pt

tbl1.Cell(r, c).Range.Font.Bold = 0;

tbl1.Cell(r, c).Range.Font.Size = 21;

cc = cc + 1;

}

Hi Prabhat,

Sorry, I couldn't get your point right the moment. Actually it was "same table" instead of "same cell". Anyway, Yes, there's a way you can achieve this purpose. For this, you need to take a Range object => assign it with the range that you want to modify => Set the Range object to denote a substring of text inside that range => Apply formatting. That's all my friend. Below is sample a sample of what I explained above:

table1.Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Sunny Kumar";
table1.Cell(1, 1).Range.Font.Color = WdColor.wdColorRed;
Range RangeToModify = table1.Cell(1, 1).Range;
RangeToModify.SetRange(table1.Cell(1, 1).Range.Start, table1.Cell(1, 1).Range.Words[1].End); // this will select the first word in range. SetRange() method just takes integer values as to slice a substring. You're free to put desired index number in Start and End if you're sure about.

RangeToModify.Font.Color = WdColor.wdColorGreen;
RangeToModify.Font.Size = 20;

Hope it helps!

Happy Coding :)

Hi Sunny, I have already deployed the project by creating the word the table dynamically. Thanks for your help.

Hi Prabhat,

apologies for responding late, I didn't realize I had it in my inbox.

Interop.Word doesn't provide any Interface to restrict the number of rows in a table, however in your scenario, we can have a work around for this. How about having a table for every three rows in a document. If the number of rows exceed, add another document, add the table write another three rows and so on.

Thanks.

Hi Sunny, Sorry for late reply. Below is my code:
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Table tbl1;
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Range wordRange = doc.Content;
tbl1 = doc.Content.Tables.Add(wordRange, TotalNumber, 2, ref objMiss, ref objMiss);//Here TotalNumber is number of rows that varies and computed beforehand.
tbl1.Borders.Enable = 1;
tbl1.AllowAutoFit = true;
int cc = 1;
for (int r = 1; r <= TotalNumber; r++)
        { for (int c = 1; c <= 2; c++)
                { if (cc < UserNameOne.Length)
                        {
tbl1.Cell(r, c).Range.Text = "Welcome to YZ Company" + "\n" + "User Name:" + UserNameOne[cc] + "\n" + "Password:" + UserPassword[cc] + "\n";// UserName and Password comes from string list
                        tbl1.Cell(r, c).Range.Font.Bold = 0;
                        tbl1.Cell(r, c).Range.Font.Size = 28; cc = cc + 1; } } } //////////////////////// In the code above, number of rows is determined by TotalNumber. like, if its 6 number of rows created are 6 in Word file. My problem is, I want that 6 rows in two pages, 3 rows in each page.
Thanks.

Hi Prabhat,

Sorry for responding a little late, was busy with some other assignment. Can you please explain how the table looks after it's populated. How you've planned for the cells inside the table, are they fixed height/width, will, are they centered vertically etc..? Please send me a demo page that is system generated and also the modified one as per your preference. I'll feel happy if I could help.

Thanks.

Hi Sunny, Thank you for your reply. And, I am sorry that I dint make the problem clear to you. In fact, the Ms Word that I created has multiple rows. But, in each page there should be only three rows so that no rows would split while printing them. Thanks.

Well, in my opinion MS-Word does not have such functionality but you may prefer a work-around. I assume you might want to do this for the reason of Document Protection. As you already have a table in Document with 2 columns and 3 Rows. If you want nobody to edit this document, you can simply protect the document using;

doc.Protect(WdProtectionType.wdAllowOnlyComments, mv, mv, mv, mv);
(*mv=Missing.Value)

Code above will enforce restriction to allow only comments (it is without password.
If somebody wants to unprotect it, they just simply can)

If you want to protect it with password, try below code:

object pwd = "password";
doc.Protect(WdProtectionType.wdAllowOnlyComments, mv, ref pwd, mv, mv);

Hope it helps :)

In the same word file above, each page is supposed to have 3 rows only. So, is there any way to do this? thanks,

Hi.. :) sorry, but I couldn't get properly -"assign each page with only 3 rows and 2 columns". Please explain a little more.

Hi Sunny, This would be just playing with size property. My requirement is, in the same cell, there should be more than one text with different size. From the methodology above, if would like to create text twice, the later one would replace the former one. So, is there any other way to not replace the later text while calling the Text property twice? I would like to thank you for your effort.

Hi Prabhat,

You can do so by manipulating the "Font" property of Table.Cell().Range object.
Below is a sample:

table1.Cell(1, 1).Range.Text = "Sunny Kumar";
table1.Cell(1, 2).Range.Font.Color = WdColor.wdColorRed;
table1.Cell(1, 2).Range.Font.Size = 15;
table1.Cell(1, 2).Range.Text = "Text in 15px Red Color";
table1.Cell(1, 3).Range.Font.Color = WdColor.wdColorBlue;
table1.Cell(1, 3).Range.Font.Size = 25;
table1.Cell(1, 3).Range.Text = "Text in 25px Blue Color";

Happy Coding :)
Please don't forget to accept this as answer if it helps!
Thanks.
