MS Word Office Automation - Filling Text Form Fields And Check Box Form Fields And Mail Merge

Using MailMerge:

(Insert - > Quick Parts -> Field -> Mail merge -> Merge field) First name: «firstName» Last name: «lastName»

Using Bookmarks:

( Insert -> BookMark) First name: (<- the bookmark is here, it’s not visible) Last name: And the code is following:

1. Using bookmarks
   

       Open("D:/Doc1.doc");
       if (oDoc.Bookmarks.Exists("bkmFirstName"))
       {
           object oBookMark = "bkmFirstName";
           oDoc.Bookmarks.get_Item(ref oBookMark).Range.Text = textBox1.Text;
       }
   
   
   

   
   

   if (oDoc.Bookmarks.Exists("bkmLastName"))
   {
       object oBookMark = "bkmLastName";
       oDoc.Bookmarks.get_Item(ref oBookMark).Range.Text = textBox2.Text;
   }
   
   
   SaveAs("D:/Test/Doc2.doc"); Quit();
   MessageBox.Show("The file is successfully saved!");
   

   
   
   
   


2. Using MailMerge
   

       Open("D:/Doc1.doc");
       foreach (Field myMergeField in oDoc.Fields)
       {
           //iTotalFields++;
           Range rngFieldCode = myMergeField.Code;
           String fieldText = rngFieldCode.Text;
   
   
   

   
   

       // GET only MAILMERGE fields
       if (fieldText.StartsWith(" MERGEFIELD"))
       {
           Int32 endMerge = fieldText.IndexOf("\\");
           Int32 fieldNameLength = fieldText.Length - endMerge;
           String fieldName = fieldText.Substring(11, endMerge - 11);
   
   
           fieldName = fieldName.Trim();
           if (fieldName == "firstName")
           {
               myMergeField.Select();
               oWordApplic.Selection.TypeText("This Text Replaces the Field in the Template");
           }
       }
   }
   SaveAs("D:/Test/Doc2.doc"); Quit();
   MessageBox.Show("The file is successfully saved!");
   

   
   
   
   

Other Method:

    ApplicationClass oWordApplic = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass();
    private Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document oDoc = new Document();

    public void Open(string strFileName)
    {
        object fileName = strFileName;
        object readOnly = false;
        object isVisible = true;
        object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;

        oDoc = oWordApplic.Documents.Open(ref fileName, ref missing, ref readOnly,
        ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
        ref missing, ref missing, ref isVisible, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);

        oDoc.Activate();
    }

    public void SaveAs(string strFileName)
    {
        object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
        object fileName = strFileName;

        oDoc.SaveAs(ref fileName, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
        ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);
    }

    public void Quit()
    {
        object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
        oWordApplic.Application.Quit(ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);
    }
