Description
This object stores the text. It is organzied in a linked list (NextPar/PrevPar) starting from TRTFData.FirstPar. Paragraphs can also contain sub-paragraphs (ChildPar).

Note

NOTE: In WPTools V4 the list was created using the pointers 'next' and 'prev'. These properties still exist and can be used to enumerate all paragraphs (including child paragraphs) in their logical order.

As in Version 4 tables cells are handled as paragraphs. In contrast to previous versions, WPTools 5 handles child paragraphs to support multiple paragraphs in the one table cell. Even tables can be inside a table cell - (but they will always start under, and not beside the normal text since they always start on a new line.)
In WPTools 5 all cells of a table row are children of one TParagraph, the row.
We decided not to use a special class to order the cells in a table (such as TWPTable.Rows[].Columns[]) since such a class has no advantages for the formatting of the text. It only introduces problems when tables are merged or split. Our approach handles each row on its own so a table merge or split is possible any time. But this does not mean there is no Row[] and Cell[] array. This properties are available in each TParagraph which is part of a table. Normally a Table starts with an empty paragraph and all rows are stored as child objects within this paragraph. The paragraph text is displayed above the rows as usual. In this case the Flag IsWPTable is true.
