# Building a Paragraph Collection > A custom paragraph collection class for TX Text Control .NET enables iteration through all paragraphs in a document. Built as the foundation for a table of contents generator, the class identifies each paragraph's formatting style and determines its corresponding page number. - **Author:** Bjoern Meyer - **Published:** 2005-06-06 - **Modified:** 2026-03-05 - **Description:** A custom paragraph collection class for TX Text Control .NET enables iteration through all paragraphs in a document.

During the implementation, I realized that I need a collection of all paragraphs in the current document. My idea was to iterate through all paragraphs, identifying the current style and page number to create a **TOC** for all headings in the document. I will publish this sample in this blog soon. Anyway, today I finished the paragraph class which can be found in our sample code library at: [https://github.com/TextControl/](https://github.com/TextControl/ "Source Code Library") This class can be used to iterate through all paragraphs in a document. Please contact me, if you have any questions or suggestions about it. --- ## About Bjoern Meyer As CEO, Bjoern is the visionary behind our strategic direction and business development, bridging the gap between our customers and engineering teams.
