Examples

The following code example creates a word-processing document by package and writes some text into it.

using System;  
using System.IO.Packaging;  
using DocumentFormat.OpenXml;  
using DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Packaging;  
using DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Wordprocessing;  
namespace BodyEx

        static void Main(string[] args)  
            string fileName = @"C:\users\public\documents\BodyEx.zip";  
            // Create a word document by package.   
            Package package = Package.Open(fileName);  
            WordprocessingDocument wordprocessingDocument =   
                WordprocessingDocument.Create(package, WordprocessingDocumentType.Template);  
            // Make some changes to the document.

            run.AppendChild(new Text("Created text in body."));

Remarks
	
[ISO/IEC 29500-1 1st Edition]
body (Document Body)
This element specifies the contents of the body of the document - the main document editing surface.
The document body contains what is referred to as block-level markup - markup which can exist as a sibling element to paragraphs in a WordprocessingML document.
[Example: Consider a document with a single paragraph in the main document story. This document would require the following WordprocessingML in its main document part:
<w:document>  
  <w:body>  
  </w:body>  
</w:document>  
The fact that the paragraph is inside the body element makes it part of the main document story. end example]
