In document-level projects, you can add Bookmark controls to the document in your project at design time or at run time. In VSTO Add-in projects, you can add Bookmark controls to any open document at run time.

Applies to: The information in this topic applies to document-level projects and VSTO Add-in projects for Word. For more information, see Features available by Office application and project type.

This topic describes the following tasks:

Add Bookmark controls at Design Time

There are several ways to add Bookmark controls to the document in a document-level project at design time:

  • From the Visual Studio Toolbox.

    You can drag the Bookmark control from the Toolbox to your document. You might want to choose this way if you are already using the Toolbox to add Windows Forms controls to your document.

  • From within Word.

    You can add the Bookmark control to your document in the same manner you would add the native bookmark. The advantage of adding it this way is that you can name your control at the time you create it.

  • From the Data Sources window.

    You can drag the Bookmark control to your document from the Data Sources window. This is useful when you want to bind the control to data at the same time. You can add the host control in the same way you would add a Windows Form control from the Data Sources window. For more information, see Data binding and Windows Forms.

    Note

    Your computer might show different names or locations for some of the Visual Studio user interface elements in the following instructions. The Visual Studio edition that you have and the settings that you use determine these elements. For more information, see Personalize the IDE.

To add a Bookmark control to a document from the Toolbox

  1. Open the Toolbox and click the Word Controls tab.

  2. Drag a Bookmark control to the document.

    The Add Bookmark dialog box appears.

  3. Select the text or other items you want to include in the bookmark.

  4. Click OK.

    If you do not want to keep the default bookmark name, you can change the name in the Properties window.

To add a Bookmark control to a document in Word

  1. In the document that is hosted in the Visual Studio designer, put the cursor where you want to add the bookmark, or select the text that you want the bookmark to enclose.

  2. On the Insert tab of the Ribbon, in the Links group, click the Bookmark button.

  3. In the Bookmark dialog box, type the name of the new bookmark, and click Add.

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

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

To add a Bookmark control to a document programmatically

  1. In the ThisDocument_Startup event handler in your project, insert the following code to add the Bookmark control to the first paragraph in the document.

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Bookmark firstParagraph;
firstParagraph = this.Controls.AddBookmark(this.Paragraphs[1].Range,
    "FirstParagraph");

    Dim firstParagraph As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Bookmark
firstParagraph = Me.Controls.AddBookmark(Me.Paragraphs(1).Range, "FirstParagraph")

    Note

    If you want create a Bookmark control from an existing Bookmark, use the AddBookmark method and pass in the existing Bookmark.

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

You can add Bookmark 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. There are two method overloads that you can use to add a Bookmark control in the following ways:

To add a Bookmark control at a specified range

  1. Use the AddBookmark method, and pass in the Range where you want to add the Bookmark.

    The following code example adds a new Bookmark to the beginning of the active document. To use this example, run the code from the ThisAddIn_Startup event handler in a Word VSTO Add-in project.

    Dim extendedDocument As Document = Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(Me.Application.ActiveDocument)


Dim firstParagraph As Bookmark = extendedDocument.Controls.AddBookmark( _
    extendedDocument.Paragraphs(1).Range, "FirstParagraph")

    Document extendedDocument = Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(this.Application.ActiveDocument);


Bookmark firstParagraph = extendedDocument.Controls.AddBookmark(
    extendedDocument.Paragraphs[1].Range, "FirstParagraph");

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

  1. Use the AddBookmark method, and pass in the existing Bookmark that you want to use as the basis for the new Bookmark.

    The following code example creates a new Bookmark that is based on the first Bookmark in the active document. To use this example, run the code from the ThisAddIn_Startup event handler in a Word VSTO Add-in project.

    If Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Count > 0 Then
    Dim firstBookmark As Word.Bookmark = Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks(1)

    Dim extendedDocument As Document = Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(Me.Application.ActiveDocument)

    Dim vstoBookmark As Bookmark = extendedDocument.Controls.AddBookmark( _
        firstBookmark, "VSTOBookmark")
End If

    if (this.Application.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Count > 0)
{
    object index = 1;
    Word.Bookmark firstBookmark = this.Application.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.get_Item(ref index);


     Document extendedDocument = Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(this.Application.ActiveDocument);

    Bookmark vstoBookmark = extendedDocument.Controls.AddBookmark(
            firstBookmark, "VSTOBookmark");
}
