Remove spacing after paragraph in Word 2007 with VSTO

Question

I am creating and populating a Word 2007 table in C#. When I view the result in Word, each cell has extra vertical space appended after the text. In Word this can be adjusted through the "page layout"/Paragraph/Spacing, where the initial value is 10pt. ``` --------------------------------------------------- | Text... | Text.... | More text... | | | | | <- Extra spacing --------------------------------------------------- | | | | ``` How can this be changed using VSTO? I have tried to record a macro, hoping for some answers in the VB code - it didn't seem to respond to the changing of the spacing value. I haven't been able to find anything related in the VSTO documentation on MSDN. Edit: Using a Word template, I can mark the area I'm populating and set the spacing to 0. It is then inherited through my table - thus it works for now. But still, it would be nice to be able to control the spacing from C# and not rely on inheritance in Word.

Accepted Answer

According to Jose Anton Bautista the solution is like the following:

```
Word.Document currentDocument;
currentDocument.Paragraphs.SpaceAfter = 0;
```

Or

```
Word.Table table;
table.Range.Paragraphs.SpaceAfter = 0;
```

This works very well and to me, it shows where I also can access various properties of the document elements.
