Feedback on TOC Generation Code
- by vikramjb
Hi All
I wrote a small code to generate ToC or Hierachical Bullets like one sees in a word document. Like the following set
1.
2
3
3.1
3.1.1
4
5
and so on so forth, the code is working but I am not happy with the code I have written, I would appreciate if you guys could shed some light on how I can improve my C# code. You can download the project from Rapidshare
Please do let me know if you need more info. I am making this a community wiki.
