## prepend_content(source_section) {#section}

Inserts a copy of content of the source section at the beginning of this section.


```python
def prepend_content(self, source_section: aspose.words.Section):
    ...
```

| Parameter | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| source_section | [Section](../) | The section to copy content from. |

### Remarks

Only content of [Section.body](../body/) of the source section is copied, page setup,
headers and footers are not copied.

The nodes are automatically imported if the source section belongs to a different document.

No new section is created in the destination document.




### Examples

Shows how to append the contents of a section to another section.

```python
doc = aw.Document()
builder = aw.DocumentBuilder(doc=doc)
builder.write('Section 1')
builder.insert_break(aw.BreakType.SECTION_BREAK_NEW_PAGE)
builder.write('Section 2')
builder.insert_break(aw.BreakType.SECTION_BREAK_NEW_PAGE)
builder.write('Section 3')
section = doc.sections[2]
self.assertEqual('Section 3' + aw.ControlChar.SECTION_BREAK, section.get_text())
# Insert the contents of the first section to the beginning of the third section.
section_to_prepend = doc.sections[0]
section.prepend_content(section_to_prepend)
# Insert the contents of the second section to the end of the third section.
section_to_append = doc.sections[1]
section.append_content(section_to_append)
# The "PrependContent" and "AppendContent" methods did not create any new sections.
self.assertEqual(3, doc.sections.count)
self.assertEqual('Section 1' + aw.ControlChar.PARAGRAPH_BREAK + 'Section 3' + aw.ControlChar.PARAGRAPH_BREAK + 'Section 2' + aw.ControlChar.SECTION_BREAK, section.get_text())
```
