Hello.  I am creating multiple ntables in a document, saving the document to an RTF string into a sql table. My question is, how can I identify/locate a specific table in the doc so I can remove it and create another table in its place? I would like to give my users the option of re-creating specific tables in the doc but i'm not sure how I could find the table once it's been loaded into the NRichTextView.

Thanks!

Thanks. If the user places the cursor at a particular location in the document, or selects a table or text, can I know where that is and be able to replace the selected text/table with a new one? Or be able to insert a table/text at the cursor location in the document?

Thank you!

Hi Tom,
Please take a look at the following topic in the documentation:
http://helpopenvision.nevron.com/#WorkingWithTextDocuments_Selection.html

You can get the currently selected inline and dig your way up the tree using the following code:
   nRichTextViewWithRibbonControl1.Widget.View.SaveToFile("c:\\temp\\test.pdf", new Nevron.Nov.Text.Formats.NPdfTextFormat());

    NSelection selection = nRichTextViewWithRibbonControl1.Widget.View.Selection;
    if (selection.Mode == ENSelectionMode.Caret)
    {
      NTable table = (NTable)selection.GetSelectedInlines(false)[0].GetFirstAncestor(NTable.NTableSchema);

      table.BackgroundFill = new NColorFill(NColor.Red);
    }

The idea is to get the current inline where the cursor is located and then try to get the first table that contains it. The code specifically checks whether the selection mode is caret so that it avoids the Range selection mode in which you can have two or more tables selected simultaneously.
Hope this helps - let us know if you have any questions.
