Set field value

The following example shows you how to set SimpleVariableSetField field value.

import java.util.List;

import com.independentsoft.office.odf.Paragraph;
import com.independentsoft.office.odf.TextDocument;
import com.independentsoft.office.odf.fields.SimpleVariableSetField;

public class Example {

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            TextDocument doc = new TextDocument("c:\\test\\input.odt");

            List<Paragraph> paragraphs = doc.getParagraphs();

            for (int i = 0; i < paragraphs.size(); i++)
            {
            	for (int j = paragraphs.get(i).getContent().size()- 1; j >= 0; j--)
                {
                    if (paragraphs.get(i).getContent().get(j) instanceof SimpleVariableSetField)
                    {
                        SimpleVariableSetField field = (SimpleVariableSetField)paragraphs.get(i).getContent().get(j);

                        if (field.getName().equals("CustomerID"))
                        {
                            field.setValue("12345");
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
            
            doc.save("c:\\test\\output.odt", true);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            System.out.println(e.getMessage());
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
