Add content controls at run time in a document-level project

You can add content controls programmatically to your document at run time by using methods of the Controls property of the ThisDocument class in your project. Each method has three overloads that you can use to add a content control in the following ways:

  • Add a control at the current selection.

  • Add a control at a specified range.

  • Add a control that is based on a native content control in the document.

    Dynamically created content controls are not persisted in the document when the document is closed. However, a native content control remains in the document. You can recreate a content control that is based on a native content control the next time the document is opened. For more information, see Add controls to Office documents at run time.

Note

To add a check box content control to a document in a Word 2010 project, you must create a ContentControl object. For more information, see Content controls.

To add a content control at the current selection

  1. Use a ControlCollection method that has the name Add<control class> (where control class is the class name of the content control that you want to add, such as AddRichTextContentControl), and that has a single parameter for the name of the new control.

    The following code example uses the AddRichTextContentControl method to add a new RichTextContentControl to the beginning of the document. To run this code, add the code to the ThisDocument class in your project, and call the AddRichTextControlAtSelection method from the ThisDocument_Startup event handler.

To add a content control at a specified range

  1. Use a ControlCollection method that has the name Add<control class> (where control class is the name of the content control class that you want to add, such as AddRichTextContentControl), and that has a Range parameter.

    The following code example uses the AddRichTextContentControl method to add a new RichTextContentControl to the beginning of the document. To run this code, add the code to the ThisDocument class in your project, and call the AddRichTextControlAtRange method from the ThisDocument_Startup event handler.

To add a content control that is based on a native content control

  1. Use a ControlCollection method that has the name Add<control class> (where control class is the name of the content control class that you want to add, such as AddRichTextContentControl), and that has a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ContentControl parameter.

    The following code example uses the AddRichTextContentControl method to create a new RichTextContentControl for every native rich text control that is in the document. To run this code, add the code to the ThisDocument class in your project, and call the CreateRichTextControlsFromNativeControls method from the ThisDocument_Startup event handler.

Add content controls at run time in a VSTO Add-in project

You can add content controls programmatically to any open document at run time by using a VSTO Add-in. To do this, generate a Document host item that is based on an open document, and then use methods of the Controls property of this host item. Each method has three overloads that you can use to add a content control in the following ways:

  • Add a control at the current selection.

  • Add a control at a specified range.

  • Add a control that is based on a native content control in the document.

    Dynamically created content controls are not persisted in the document when the document is closed. However, a native content control remains in the document. You can recreate a content control that is based on a native content control the next time the document is opened. For more information, see Persist dynamic controls in Office documents.

    For more information about generating host items in VSTO Add-in projects, see Extend Word documents and Excel workbooks in VSTO Add-ins at run time.

Note

To add a check box content control to a document, you must create a ContentControl object. For more information, see Content controls.

To add a content control at the current selection

    The following code example uses the AddRichTextContentControl method to add a new RichTextContentControl to the beginning of the active document. To run this code, add the code to the ThisAddIn class in your project, and call the AddRichTextControlAtSelection method from the ThisAddIn_Startup event handler.

To add a content control at a specified range

  1. Use a ControlCollection method that has the name Add<control class> (where control class is the name of the content control class that you want to add, such as AddRichTextContentControl), and that has a Range parameter.

    The following code example uses the AddRichTextContentControl method to add a new RichTextContentControl to the beginning of the active document.
