TableData.headers property

Gets or sets the headers of the table.

var hasHeaders = tableBindingObj.headers;

Return Value

true if the table has headers; otherwise false.

Remarks

To specify headers, you must specify an array of arrays that corresponds to the structure of the table. For example, to specify headers for a two-column table you would set the header property to [['header1', 'header2']].

If you specify null for the headers property (or leaving the property empty when you construct a TableData object), the following results occur when your code executes:

• If you insert a new table, the default column headers for the table are created.

• If you overwrite or update an existing table, the existing headers are not altered.

Example

The following example creates a single-column table with a header and three rows.

function createTableData() {
    var tableData = new Office.TableData();
    tableData.headers = [['header1']];
    tableData.rows = [['row1'], ['row2'], ['row3']];
    return tableData;
}
