Using Spire doc in a Word Add-In

[aluay]

Hello,

i am new to this product and have a question, is it possible to use Spire Doc with a visual studio Word Add-in project?

if yes, how do i reference the active document?

in MS interop i used to use: Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveDocument

Thanks and Regards

Hi aluay,

Thanks for your inquiry.
Our Spire.Doc could be used in Word Add-in.
As far as I know, the function "Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveDocument" is used for getting the document. There is no same method in Spire, but you could load the document via file stream or file path. Then operate the file.

Code: Select all

            Document doc = new Document();
            //get file via file stream
            doc.LoadFromStream(FileStream);
            //get file via file path
            doc.LoadFromFile(@"filePath");

Thanks for the reply.

but as an Add-in, i am within the document that i want to edit, i dont know the file name or path for it.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.
I think you could use the method like Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveDocument.FullName to get the file name, then load the file with Spire.
