Examples

The following code example adds a new DatePickerContentControl to the beginning of the document. The example uses the DateDisplayFormat property to display dates in the format MMMM d, yyyy.

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

private Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DatePickerContentControl datePickerControl1;

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

    datePickerControl1 = this.Controls.AddDatePickerContentControl("datePickerControl1");
    datePickerControl1.DateDisplayFormat = "MMMM d, yyyy";
    datePickerControl1.PlaceholderText = "Choose a date";
}

Dim datePickerControl1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DatePickerContentControl

Private Sub AddDatePickerControlAtSelection()
    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()
    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.Select()
    datePickerControl1 = Me.Controls.AddDatePickerContentControl("datePickerControl1")
    datePickerControl1.DateDisplayFormat = "MMMM d, yyyy"
    datePickerControl1.PlaceholderText = "Choose a date"
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 AddDatePickerControlAtSelection method from the ThisAddIn_Startup method.

private Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DatePickerContentControl datePickerControl1;

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

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

    datePickerControl1 = vstoDoc.Controls.AddDatePickerContentControl("datePickerControl1");
    datePickerControl1.DateDisplayFormat = "MMMM d, yyyy";
    datePickerControl1.PlaceholderText = "Choose a date";
}

Dim datePickerControl1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DatePickerContentControl

Private Sub AddDatePickerControlAtSelection()
    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()
    datePickerControl1 = vstoDoc.Controls.AddDatePickerContentControl("datePickerControl1")
    datePickerControl1.DateDisplayFormat = "MMMM d, yyyy"
    datePickerControl1.PlaceholderText = "Choose a date"
End Sub

Remarks

The default date format is the format setting specified in Microsoft Office Word, which usually depends on the locale setting of the operating system. For example, the default format of dates for the locale English (United States) is M/dd/yyyy.
