# How to: Build a Table Programmatically
|
|
The following examples show how to programmatically create a <xref:System.Windows.Documents.Table> and populate it with content. The contents of the table are apportioned into five rows (represented by <xref:System.Windows.Documents.TableRow> objects contained in a <xref:System.Windows.Documents.Table.RowGroups%2A> object) and six columns (represented by <xref:System.Windows.Documents.TableColumn> objects). The rows are used for different presentation purposes, including a title row intended to title the entire table, a header row to describe the columns of data in the table, and a footer row with summary information. Note that the notion of "title", "header", and "footer" rows are not inherent to the table; these are simply rows with different characteristics. Table cells contain the actual content, which can be comprised of text, images, or nearly any other [!INCLUDE[TLA#tla_ui](../../../includes/tlasharptla-ui-md.md)] element.

## Create a table
|
|
First, a <xref:System.Windows.Documents.FlowDocument> is created to host the <xref:System.Windows.Documents.Table>, and a new <xref:System.Windows.Documents.Table> is created and added to the contents of the <xref:System.Windows.Documents.FlowDocument>.

|
|
[!code-vb[TableSnippets#_TableCreate](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Wpf/TableSnippets/VisualBasic/Table.vb#_tablecreate)]
|
|
|
|
## Add columns
|
|
Next, six <xref:System.Windows.Documents.TableColumn> objects are created and added to the table's <xref:System.Windows.Documents.Table.Columns%2A> collection, with some formatting applied.
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> Note that the table's <xref:System.Windows.Documents.Table.Columns%2A> collection uses standard zero-based indexing.

|
|
|
|
## Add a title row
|
|
Next, a title row is created and added to the table with some formatting applied. The title row happens to contain a single cell that spans all six columns in the table.

[!code-vb[TableSnippets#_TableAddTitleRow](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Wpf/TableSnippets/VisualBasic/Table.vb#_tableaddtitlerow)]
|
|
|
|
## Add a header row
|
|
Next, a header row is created and added to the table, and the cells in the header row are created and populated with content.
|
|
|
|
[!code-csharp[TableSnippets#_TableAddHeaderRow](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/TableSnippets/CSharp/Table.cs#_tableaddheaderrow)]
|
|
[!code-vb[TableSnippets#_TableAddHeaderRow](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Wpf/TableSnippets/VisualBasic/Table.vb#_tableaddheaderrow)]
|
|
|
|
## Add a row
|
|
Next, a row for data is created and added to the table, and the cells in this row are created and populated with content. Building this row is similar to building the header row, with slightly different formatting applied.

|
|
|
|
## Add a footer row
|
|
Finally, a footer row is created, added, and formatted. Like the title row, the footer contains a single cell that spans all six columns in the table.
|
|
|
|
[!code-csharp[TableSnippets#_TableAddFooterRow](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/TableSnippets/CSharp/Table.cs#_tableaddfooterrow)]
|
|
[!code-vb[TableSnippets#_TableAddFooterRow](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Wpf/TableSnippets/VisualBasic/Table.vb#_tableaddfooterrow)]
