Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to create a smart tag with an action. The smart tag action modifies the menu caption of the action at run time and displays the location of the text that was recognized.

private Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action displayAddress;

private void AddSmartTag()
{
    // Create the smart tag for .NET Framework 4 projects.
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.SmartTag smartTagDemo =
        Globals.Factory.CreateSmartTag(
        "www.microsoft.com/Demo#DemoSmartTag",
        "Demonstration Smart Tag");

    // For .NET Framework 3.5 projects, use the following code to create the smart tag.
    // Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.SmartTag smartTagDemo =
        // new Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.SmartTag(
        //     "www.microsoft.com/Demo#DemoSmartTag",
        //     "Demonstration Smart Tag");

    // Specify the terms to recognize.
    smartTagDemo.Terms.Add("term");
    smartTagDemo.Terms.Add("recognize");

    // Create the action for .NET Framework 4 projects.
    displayAddress = Globals.Factory.CreateAction("To be replaced"); 

    // For .NET Framework 3.5 projects, use the following code to create the action.
    // displayAddress = new Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action("To be replaced");

    // Add the action to the smart tag.
    smartTagDemo.Actions = new Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action[] { 
        displayAddress };

    // Add the smart tag.
    this.VstoSmartTags.Add(smartTagDemo);

    displayAddress.BeforeCaptionShow += new
        Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.BeforeCaptionShowEventHandler(
        displayAddress_BeforeCaptionShow);

    displayAddress.Click += new
        Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.ActionClickEventHandler(
        displayAddress_Click);
}

void displayAddress_BeforeCaptionShow(object sender,
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.ActionEventArgs e)
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action clickedAction =
        sender as Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action;

    if (clickedAction != null)
    {
        clickedAction.Caption = "Display the location of " +
            e.Text;
    }
}

void displayAddress_Click(object sender,
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.ActionEventArgs e)
{
    int termStart = e.Range.Start;
    int termEnd = e.Range.End;
    System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("The recognized text '" + e.Text +
        "' begins at position " + termStart.ToString() +
        " and ends at position " + termEnd.ToString());
}

Private WithEvents displayAddress As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action

Private Sub AddSmartTag()

    ' Create the smart tag for .NET Framework 4 projects.
    Dim smartTagDemo As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.SmartTag = Globals.Factory.CreateSmartTag(
        "www.microsoft.com/Demo#DemoSmartTag",
        "Demonstration Smart Tag")

    ' For .NET Framework 3.5 projects, use the following code to create the smart tag.
    ' Dim smartTagDemo As New  _
    '     Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.SmartTag( _
    '     "www.microsoft.com/Demo#DemoSmartTag", _
    '     "Demonstration Smart Tag")

    ' Specify the terms to recognize.
    smartTagDemo.Terms.Add("term")
    smartTagDemo.Terms.Add("recognize")

    ' Create the action for .NET Framework 4 projects.
    displayAddress = Globals.Factory.CreateAction("To be replaced")

    ' For .NET Framework 3.5 projects, use the following code to create the action.
    ' displayAddress = New Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action("To be replaced")

    ' Add the action to the smart tag.
    smartTagDemo.Actions = New Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action() { _
            displayAddress}

    ' Add the smart tag.
    Me.VstoSmartTags.Add(smartTagDemo)
End Sub

Private Sub DisplayAddress_BeforeCaptionShow(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.ActionEventArgs) _
    Handles displayAddress.BeforeCaptionShow

    Dim clickedAction As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action = _
        TryCast(sender, Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Action)

    If clickedAction IsNot Nothing Then
        clickedAction.Caption = "Display the location of " & e.Text
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub DisplayAddress_Click(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.ActionEventArgs) _
    Handles displayAddress.Click

    Dim termStart As Integer = e.Range.Start
    Dim termEnd As Integer = e.Range.End
    MsgBox("The recognized text '" & e.Text & _
            "' begins at position " & termStart & _
            " and ends at position " & termEnd)
End Sub

Remarks

Actions are the choices available on the smart tag shortcut menu when a smart tag of a certain type is recognized. To create an action, use the Globals.Factory.CreateAction method to create an Action object.
