An instance of the TableColumnCollection class contains all columns of a table in a Text Control document represented through objects of the type TableColumn. It can be obtained with the Table.Columns property. The TableColumnCollection class implements the IEnumerable and the ICollection interfaces.

Syntax

public sealed class TableColumnCollection: TablePartCollection
Public NotInheritable Class TableColumnCollection
  Inherits TablePartCollection

Examples

The following example shows how to use the table column collection.

int myLastCol = myTable.Columns.Count;
TXTextControl.TableColumn myCol = myTable.Columns.GetItem(myLastCol);
TXTextControl.TableCell myCell = myTable.Cells.GetItem(1, myLastCol);
int myNewWidth = (int)(myCol.Width / 2);

textControl1.InputPosition = new TXTextControl.InputPosition(myCell.Start - 1);

if (myTable.Columns.CanAdd)
{
    myCol.Width = myNewWidth;
    myTable.Columns.Add(TXTextControl.TableAddPosition.After);
}
Dim MyLastCol As Integer = MyTable.Columns.Count
Dim MyCol As TXTextControl.TableColumn = MyTable.Columns.GetItem(MyLastCol)
Dim MyCell As TXTextControl.TableCell = MyTable.Cells.GetItem(1, MyLastCol)
Dim MyNewWidth As Integer = CInt(MyCol.Width / 2)

TextControl1.InputPosition = New TXTextControl.InputPosition(MyCell.Start - 1)

If MyTable.Columns.CanAdd Then
    MyCol.Width = MyNewWidth
    MyTable.Columns.Add(TXTextControl.TableAddPosition.After)
End If
