DocumentBase.Compatibility Property

Definition

Gets a value that indicates whether the specified compatibility option is enabled.

public Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Document_CompatibilityType Compatibility { get; }

Property Value

Returns Document_CompatibilityType.

Examples

The following code example suppresses the space before a paragraph if the paragraph is located after a hard page break. To use this example, run it from the ThisDocument class in a document-level project.

private void DocumentCompatibility()
{
    this.Compatibility[Word.WdCompatibility.wdSuppressSpBfAfterPgBrk] = true;
}

Remarks

The Compatibility property is intended to be used with the following parameter.

Parameter Description
Type One of the WdCompatibility values that specifies the compatibility option to check for.

If you use the Compatibility property without specifying a parameter, it returns a Document_CompatibilityType object that is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Compatibility options affect how a document is displayed in Microsoft Office Word. Some of the WdCompatibility values might not be available to you, depending on the language support (U.S. English, for example) that you have selected or installed.
