Document.HasMacros property

Returns true if the document has a VBA project (macros).

public bool HasMacros { get; }

Examples

Shows how to use MACROBUTTON fields to allow us to run a document’s macros by clicking.

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "Macro.docm");
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

Assert.IsTrue(doc.HasMacros);

// Insert a MACROBUTTON field, and reference one of the document's macros by name in the MacroName property.
FieldMacroButton field = (FieldMacroButton)builder.InsertField(FieldType.FieldMacroButton, true);
field.MacroName = "MyMacro";
field.DisplayText = "Double click to run macro: " + field.MacroName;

Assert.AreEqual(" MACROBUTTON  MyMacro Double click to run macro: MyMacro", field.GetFieldCode());

// Use the property to reference "ViewZoom200", a macro that ships with Microsoft Word.
// We can find all other macros via View -> Macros (dropdown) -> View Macros.
// In that menu, select "Word Commands" from the "Macros in:" drop down.
// If our document contains a custom macro with the same name as a stock macro,
// our macro will be the one that the MACROBUTTON field runs.
builder.InsertParagraph();
field = (FieldMacroButton)builder.InsertField(FieldType.FieldMacroButton, true);
field.MacroName = "ViewZoom200";
field.DisplayText = "Run " + field.MacroName;

Assert.AreEqual(" MACROBUTTON  ViewZoom200 Run ViewZoom200", field.GetFieldCode());

// Save the document as a macro-enabled document type.
doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Field.MACROBUTTON.docm");
