Content Control

[Norman Siboro]

Is there any way to access through all content control in word document or access content control by its tag name and change the value of content control?

Hi Norman,

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support.

From the given details, we have found that your requirement is to access all the content control by iterating the word document and find the particular content control by using their tag name. Based on this we have prepared the sample application and it can be downloaded from the below link.
https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/157348/ze/FindContentControl-653844910

In this sample, we have done the following things:
1. Loads an existing Word document.
2. Iterates into all child entities and get all content controls in the document.
3. Find the specific content control using its tag name
4. Saves the Word document.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Regards,
Manikandan Ravichandran

Thank you for providing the code to access all content control in a document. 

But I need one more step after finding the content control which is changing the value (text) of the content control if it is plain text or multiple text, because I cannot find property 'text' in content control  

Need Your Help

Hi Norman,

Thank you for your update.

We have modified the previously provided sample to change the content control text as per your request. The modified sample can be downloaded from the below link.

In this sample we have done the followings,
1. Load the input document
2. Find the content control from the document using Tag name.
3. After finding the content control, change the content control text with desired new text.

In Change Text method, we have done the followings.
1. If the content control is InlineContentControl, then remove the child element form thr content control and then add new text range on it with desired text.
2. If the content control is BlockContentControl means, then remove the child elements from text body part and then add new paragraph with one text range with desired text.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
