How to: Create Smart Tags With Custom Recognizers in Word and .NET Framework 3.5

Artikel
02/04/2013

In Word projects that target the .NET Framework 3.5, you can control how Word recognizes smart tags in documents by deriving from the Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.SmartTag class and overriding the Recognize method.

Applies to: The information in this topic applies to document-level projects and application-level projects for Word 2007. For more information, see Features Available by Office Application and Project Type.

To run a smart tag, end users must have smart tags enabled. For more information, see How to: Enable Smart Tags in Word and Excel.

To add a smart tag with a custom recognizer to a Word document

Create a new document-level or application-level project for Word 2007. For more information, see How to: Create Office Projects in Visual Studio.
Add a reference to the Microsoft.Office.Interop.SmartTag assembly (version 12.0.0.0) from the .NET tab of the Add Reference dialog box.
Add a class file to the project and create a class that inherits from Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.SmartTag.
In the new class, create the actions for the smart tags. Actions are items that appear on the smart tags menu. Create actions by adding instances of the Action type to your class's Actions collection.
Override the SmartTagBase.Recognize method to implement your own custom recognizing behavior.

Your override of the Recognize method must call the Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.SmartTag.PersistTag method to make Word recognize the smart tag.
Create event handlers to respond to the Click event, and optionally the BeforeCaptionShow event, of the actions that you created.
In the code file for the project document, add the smart tag instance to VstoSmartTags property of the ThisDocument class (for a document-level project), or the VstoSmartTags property of the ThisAddIn class (for an application-level project).

Example

The following code example shows how to create a custom smart tag in a Word document. The example overrides the Recognize method to recognize the terms sales and organization. The Recognize method adds a key and value pair to the collection of keyed properties for the smart tag. The method then calls the PersistTag method to recognize the smart tag and save the new smart tag property.

To test the example, type the words sales and organization in different places in the document, and then try the smart tag actions. One action displays the corresponding property value for the recognized term, and the other action displays the smart tag namespace and caption.

Compiling the Code

Add a reference in the project to Microsoft Smart Tags 2.0 Type Library from the COM tab of the Add Reference dialog box. Ensure that the Copy Local property of the reference is false. If it is true, the reference is not to the correct primary interop assembly and you must install the assembly from the Microsoft Office installation media. For more information, see How to: Install Office Primary Interop Assemblies.
Place the example code in a new class file named CustomSmartTag.
In C#, change the namespace to match the project name.
Add Imports (in Visual Basic) or using (in C#) statements for the Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word and Microsoft.Office.Interop.SmartTag namespaces at the top of the class file.
Add the following code to the ThisDocument_Startup or ThisAddIn_Startup event handler in your project. This code adds the custom smart tag to the document.
```
Me.VstoSmartTags.Add(New CustomSmartTag())
```
```
this.VstoSmartTags.Add(new CustomSmartTag());
```

Security

To run the smart tag, smart tags must be enabled in Word. For more information, see How to: Enable Smart Tags in Word and Excel.
