Hello,

I've tried to do the following operations:

1)Open a odt file
2) Add a new table
3) Save file

All goes fine but when I try to open the new saved odt file, OpenOffice tells me that the file is corrupt.

I used following piece of code:

TextDocument document = new TextDocument();
document.Load(filePath);

//document.New();
Table table = TableBuilder.CreateTextDocumentTable(document,"table3","table",3,3,16.99,false,true);

//Create a standard paragraph
Paragraph paragraph = ParagraphBuilder.CreateStandardTextParagraph(document);
//Add some simple text
paragraph.TextContent.Add(new SimpleText(document, "Some cell text"));
//Insert paragraph into the first cell
table.RowCollection[0].CellCollection[0].Content.Add(paragraph);

//Add table to the document
document.Content.Add(table);
//Save the document
document.SaveTo(destination);
odt = new Odt(destination);
odt.Save(destination);

Can somebody tell me what I did wrong?

	I used AODL mostly to open ODT file and populate it with data (for example, add more rows to table, fill with data from DB, etc). So can not help you exacty with this, sorry

	Could you post a piece of code with an example about how to add rows to an existing table. I could workarround the solution with adding the table header to the template and add my rows to it. thanks

	That is very easy. Just make a call like this: table.Rows.Add(new Row(table)); I actually created a simple (chaotic) utility, which reads all localization resources, and outputs everything into single big excel file (with excel i mean actually ods file). Here is the file which does actual writing to ods file: http://bitbucket.org/dariusdamalakas/resman/src/tip/resman/Output/ods/OdsOutput.cs
