    Hi

     

    Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately there is no "one step" way to populate a document with data that has parent-child relationships. Mail merge regions can only process one data table at a time.

    But you can generate such reports by performing mail merge several times and building up a resulting document from several documents or fragments. The Product Catalog and Sales Invoice samples in the demo project supplied with Aspose.Words demonstrate the suggested techniques.

     

    Hope this helps.

     

    Best regards.
