Document.CheckIn Method

Puts a document on a server from a local computer, and sets the local document to read-only so that it cannot be edited locally.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Sub CheckIn ( _
    SaveChanges As Boolean, _
    ByRef Comments As Object, _
    MakePublic As Boolean _
)
void CheckIn(
    bool SaveChanges,
    ref Object Comments,
    bool MakePublic
)

Parameters

  • SaveChanges
    Type: System.Boolean
    true to save the document to the server location. The default is true.
  • Comments
    Type: System.Object%
    Comments for the revision of the document being checked in (only applies if SaveChanges is set to true).
  • MakePublic
    Type: System.Boolean
    true to allow the user to publish the document after it is checked in.

Remarks

Setting the MakePublic parameter to true submits the document for the approval process, which can eventually result in a version of the document being published to users with read-only rights to the document (only applies if SaveChanges is set to true).

To take advantage of the collaboration features built into Word, documents must be stored on a Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server.
