C#

bool RightToLeft { get; set; }

VB.NET

Property RightToLeft As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true, to change the table direction; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Setting the RightToLeft property to true reorders table columns and applies the table indent (specified by the Table.Indent property) to the right side of the table. The image below shows the resulting table appearance:

Use the ParagraphProperties.RightToLeft property to change the reading order of cells’ content, as shown below:

C#

private void ChangeTableDirection(Document document)
{
  //Create a table:
  Table table = document.Tables.Create(document.Range.End, 2, 2);

  //Change the table layout direction:
  table.RightToLeft = true;

  //Change the table content direction:
  table.ForEachCell((cell, rowIndex, columnIndex) =>
  {
      //Start the cell content update:
      SubDocument cellContent = cell.ContentRange.BeginUpdateDocument();

      //Insert text to each cell:
      cellContent.InsertText(cell.Range.Start, );

      //Access the content's paragraph properties:
      ParagraphProperties paragraphProperties = cellContent.BeginUpdateParagraphs(cellContent.Range);

      //Specify the paragraph's reading order:
      paragraphProperties.RightToLeft = true;

      //Finalize the paragraph's and the content's update:
      cellContent.EndUpdateParagraphs(paragraphProperties);
      cell.ContentRange.EndUpdateDocument(cellContent);
  });

VB.NET

Private Sub ChangeTableDirection(ByVal document As Document)
  'Create a table:
  Dim table As Table = document.Tables.Create(document.Range.[End], 2, 2)

  'Change the table layout direction:
  table.RightToLeft = True

  'Change the table content direction:
  table.ForEachCell(Sub(cell, rowIndex, columnIndex)

    'Start the cell content update:
    Dim cellContent As SubDocument = cell.ContentRange.BeginUpdateDocument()
    'Insert text to each cell:
    cellContent.InsertText(cell.Range.Start,String.Format("{0},{1}",rowIndex,columnIndex))

    'Access the content's paragraph properties:
    Dim paragraphProperties As ParagraphProperties = cellContent.BeginUpdateParagraphs(cellContent.Range)

    'Specify the paragraph's reading order:
    paragraphProperties.RightToLeft = True

    'Finalize the paragraph's and the content's update:
    cellContent.EndUpdateParagraphs(paragraphProperties)
    cell.ContentRange.EndUpdateDocument(cellContent)
  End Sub)
