Question

I want to extract all the records in the database in this first picture directly to the word as in the second picture. Which method would you recommend?

o pull data from a database and populate it into a Word document in a .NET application, you can use the Microsoft Office Interop libraries. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this: Install the "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word" NuGet package in your project. Import the necessary namespaces in your code file: using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word; using System.Data; Write a method to fetch the data from the database. Depending on your database type, you can use ADO.NET or an ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) framework like Entity Framework to retrieve the data. Here's an example using ADO.NET: public DataTable FetchDataFromDatabase() { string connectionString = "YourConnectionString"; string query = "SELECT * FROM YourTable"; using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) { connection.Open(); using (SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(query, connection)) { DataTable dataTable = new DataTable(); using (SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(command)) { adapter.Fill(dataTable); } return dataTable; } } } Replace "YourConnectionString" with the actual connection string for your database, and "YourTable" with the table name or query to retrieve the desired data. Write a method to generate the Word document and populate it with the database data: public void GenerateWordDocument(DataTable dataTable, string filePath) { // Create a new instance of the Word application var wordApp = new Application(); // Create a new document var document = wordApp.Documents.Add(); // Add a table to the document var table = document.Tables.Add(document.Range(), dataTable.Rows.Count + 1, dataTable.Columns.Count); // Populate the table header row with column names for (int i = 0; i The GenerateWordDocument method takes the DataTable retrieved from the database and a file path where the Word document should be saved. It uses the Word interop objects to create a new document, add a table to it, populate the table with the data from the DataTable, and save the document to the specified file path. Make sure to adjust the file path and other formatting options as needed. Call the methods in your code to retrieve the data and generate the Word document: DataTable data = FetchDataFromDatabase(); GenerateWordDocument(data, "C:\Path\To\Your\Document.docx"); Replace "C:\Path\To\Your\Document.docx" with the desired file path for the Word document. By following these steps, you should be able to pull data from a database and populate it into a Word document in your .NET application.

You can use NPOI The sample, is here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69621671/c-sharp-npoi-lib-how-to-generate-word-doc-with-2-tables-in-the-same-row var newFile2 = @"newbook.core.docx"; using (var fs = new FileStream(newFile2, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write)) { XWPFDocument doc = new XWPFDocument(); var p0 = doc.CreateParagraph(); p0.Alignment = ParagraphAlignment.CENTER; XWPFRun r0 = p0.CreateRun(); r0.FontFamily = "microsoft yahei"; r0.FontSize = 18; r0.IsBold = true; r0.SetText("Report List"); var p1 = doc.CreateParagraph(); p1.Alignment = ParagraphAlignment.LEFT; p1.IndentationFirstLine = 500; XWPFRun r1 = p1.CreateRun(); r1.FontFamily = "·ÂËÎ"; r1.FontSize = 12; r1.IsBold = true; r1.SetText("This is content, content content content content content content content content content"); var table = doc.CreateTable(3, 4); table.GetRow(0).GetCell(0).SetText("ID"); table.GetRow(0).GetCell(1).SetText("Name"); table.GetRow(0).GetCell(2).SetText("Email"); table.GetRow(0).GetCell(3).SetText("Address"); table.GetRow(1).GetCell(0).SetText("1"); table.GetRow(1).GetCell(1).SetText("MToha"); table.GetRow(1).GetCell(2).SetText("mymail.mth@gmail.com"); table.GetRow(1).GetCell(3).SetText("Vila Nusa Indah 2"); table.GetRow(2).GetCell(0).SetText("2"); table.GetRow(2).GetCell(1).SetText("Lia Koko"); table.GetRow(2).GetCell(2).SetText("lia.koko@yahoo.com"); table.GetRow(2).GetCell(3).SetText("Pasar Sobang"); doc.Write(fs); }
