Hi
I am currently working on generating PDF documents from a Word document. In the Word document there is a table that I am filling using the merge fields. The filling works perfectly but I would like to apply a style to some rows of the table. To make it simple I would like to change the background color of the cells in case the cell on the header "stock star" contains a value. I have found examples to change the style of the whole table but no specific row. Can you give me some advice on how to do it.
I am attaching the word document I am working with and an example of the result I would like to obtain.
Thanks
Quentin
Hi Quentin,
From the given
details, we have found that your requirement is to formatting the table rows (change
the background color) when the specific field contains a value.
To achieve your requirement, we suggest you to use MergeFieldEvent and formatting the owner row of specific merge
field if there is a field value. We have prepared a sample application to change
the background color of the table row when specific merge field contains a
value as per your requirement and it can be downloaded from the below
attachment.
In the above sample, we have done the following things:
1. Opens a template Word document.
2. Creates data for mail merge
execution.
3. Using MergeField event, change the background color of the rows
of specific field which contains a value.
4. Saves the Word document to PDF after
executing mail merge.
Please refer the below link to know more about mail merge events:

Hello;
First of all, thank you for the quick response. I have just retrieved the draft example in your reply and it suits my request perfectly. So I have integrated these elements in my project and the PDF is generated as it should be.
Thank you
