Horizontal Merge Cell

[Hanson Liao]

Hi~

I use MS Word 2007 to add tables and set some cells to be merged horizontally and then save it. When I use DocIO component to open that .docx file, I can not find out the horizontal merge cell. Please see the attachment.

How can I know if the cell is a horizontal merge cell.

Hi Hanson,

Thank you for using Syncfusion products.

Yes it is possible to know whether the cell is merged or not. We have prepared a sample to illustrate your requirement to find the merged cells present in the table. Please do find the sample from below location.

Sample link:
http://www.syncfusion.com/uploads/redirect.aspx?&team=support&file=F96368-222883968.zip

Code snippet:
WTableCell cell = row.Cells[k];
//MergeCell check – Gridspan value specify the number of cells merged.
if (cell.GridSpan > 1)
MergeCellIndex += "Horizontal Merge: Row: " + cell.OwnerRow.GetRowIndex() + ", Cell: " + cell.GetCellIndex() + " Index";

Grid span value specifies the number of cells merged. If it’s greater than 1 then the cell is merged one.

Please try this and let us know if you have any other questions.

Hi~

I can not find the method "GridSpan" in class "WTableCell".

Hi Hanson,

Thank you for your update.

In Essential studio 7.3.0.20 version, the "GridSpan" property is set private internally. It was made public in our later versions. Could you please upgrade to our latest version(8.3.0.21) and let us know if this helps.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
