pass diferent parameters to a function

I am working with documents, trying to create a docx via a web page, basicly i say i want a table, a paragraph and it should append to my doc, at the backgroud i have a function that deals witht that stuff this way:

public void CreateDoc(params object[] document)
{
    var stream = new MemoryStream();
    using (WordprocessingDocument doc = WordprocessingDocument.Create(stream, WordprocessingDocumentType.Document, true))
    {
        MainDocumentPart mainPart = doc.AddMainDocumentPart();

        new Document(new Body()).Save(mainPart);

        Body body = mainPart.Document.Body;

        foreach (var docSections in document)
        {
           body.Append(new Paragraph(new ParagraphProperties(),
           new Run((Run)docSections)));
        }

    }
    stream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
    Directory.CreateDirectory(HostingEnvironment.MapPath(DOCUMENTSLOCATION));
    System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(HostingEnvironment.MapPath("~/Files/test5.docx"), stream.ToArray());



  }

watch out the parameters received in the CreateDoc, it can receive a unlimited number of paramters inside the object, that is what i want since i don'tn know how much sections my doc will have (tables, paragraphs, images etc..)-

My problem is that i need t pass more parameters that are not directly related to the construction of the file, like for example: name of the file. My idea was to pass it as the second parameter in the CreateDoc function, but how can i pass it from the other side?

Any help?

For First Step:

You Can pass Data with your own Structure instead Object.
Like Data Type and Data Content

And Second Step:

Check DataType of Parameter and then Manage it

You can always pass specific parameters to function if you have defined them as such. For instance, if you are certain that you'll always need filename as a parameter while calling this function, you can modify the function parameter as such:

public void CreateDoc(string filename, params object[] document)
{
   ...
}

Then you could call it like this:

CreateDoc("filename.docx", <param1>, <param2>);
