    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()
    plainTextControl2 = Me.Controls.AddPlainTextContentControl(Me.Paragraphs(1).Range, "plainTextControl2")
    plainTextControl2.PlaceholderText = "Enter your first name" 
End Sub
private Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.PlainTextContentControl textControl2;

private void AddTextControlAtRange()
{
    this.Paragraphs[1].Range.InsertParagraphBefore();

    vstoDoc.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()
    plainTextControl2 = vstoDoc.Controls.AddPlainTextContentControl( _
        vstoDoc.Paragraphs(1).Range, "plainTextControl2")
