Examples

The following code example adds a new DropDownListContentControl to the beginning of the document. The example uses the DropDownListEntries property to add the names of several days to the list of items that users can select in the control.

This version is for a document-level customization. To use this code, paste it into the ThisDocument class in your project, and call the AddDropDownListControlAtSelection method from the ThisDocument_Startup method.

private Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DropDownListContentControl dropDownListControl1;

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

    dropDownListControl1 = this.Controls.AddDropDownListContentControl("dropDownListControl1");
    dropDownListControl1.DropDownListEntries.Add("Monday", "Monday", 0);
    dropDownListControl1.DropDownListEntries.Add("Tuesday", "Tuesday", 1);
    dropDownListControl1.DropDownListEntries.Add("Wednesday", "Wednesday", 2);
    dropDownListControl1.PlaceholderText = "Choose a day";
}
Dim dropDownListControl1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DropDownListContentControl

Private Sub AddDropDownListControlAtSelection()
    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()
    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.Select()
    dropDownListControl1 = Me.Controls.AddDropDownListContentControl("dropDownListControl1")
    With dropDownListControl1
        .DropDownListEntries.Add("Monday", "Monday", 0)
        .DropDownListEntries.Add("Tuesday", "Tuesday", 1)
        .DropDownListEntries.Add("Wednesday", "Wednesday", 2)
        .PlaceholderText = "Choose a day"
    End With
End Sub

This version is for an application-level add-in. To use this code, paste it into the ThisAddIn class in your project, and call the AddDropDownListControlAtSelection method from the ThisAddIn_Startup method.

private Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DropDownListContentControl dropDownListControl1;

private void AddDropDownListControlAtSelection()
{
    if (this.Application.ActiveDocument == null)
        return;

    Document vstoDoc = Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(this.Application.ActiveDocument);
    vstoDoc.Paragraphs[1].Range.InsertParagraphBefore();
    vstoDoc.Paragraphs[1].Range.Select();

    dropDownListControl1 = vstoDoc.Controls.AddDropDownListContentControl("dropDownListControl1");
    dropDownListControl1.DropDownListEntries.Add("Monday", "Monday", 0);
    dropDownListControl1.DropDownListEntries.Add("Tuesday", "Tuesday", 1);
    dropDownListControl1.DropDownListEntries.Add("Wednesday", "Wednesday", 2);
    dropDownListControl1.PlaceholderText = "Choose a day";
}
Dim dropDownListControl1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DropDownListContentControl

Private Sub AddDropDownListControlAtSelection()
    If Me.Application.ActiveDocument Is Nothing Then
        Return
    End If

    Dim vstoDoc As Document = Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(Me.Application.ActiveDocument)
    vstoDoc.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()
    vstoDoc.Paragraphs(1).Range.Select()
    dropDownListControl1 = vstoDoc.Controls.AddDropDownListContentControl("dropDownListControl1")
    With dropDownListControl1
        .DropDownListEntries.Add("Monday", "Monday", 0)
        .DropDownListEntries.Add("Tuesday", "Tuesday", 1)
        .DropDownListEntries.Add("Wednesday", "Wednesday", 2)
        .PlaceholderText = "Choose a day"
    End With
End Sub

Remarks

When you add a DropDownListContentControl to a document, it contains no items by default. To add items, use the Add method of the DropDownListEntries property.
