SmartDocument.PickSolution(Boolean) Method

  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
Microsoft.Office.Core
Assembly:
office.dll

Displays a dialog box which allows the user to choose an available XML expansion pack to attach to the active Microsoft Office Word 2003 document or Microsoft Office Excel 2003 workbook.

public void PickSolution (bool ConsiderAllSchemas = false);
abstract member PickSolution : bool -> unit
Public Sub PickSolution (Optional ConsiderAllSchemas As Boolean = false)

Parameters

ConsiderAllSchemas
Boolean

Optional Boolean. True displays all available XML expansion packs installed on the user's computer. False displays only XML expansion packs applicable to the active document. Default value is False.

Remarks

Use the PickSolution method to allow the user to select an XML expansion pack from a list. The schema attached to the active document or workbook determines which XML expansion packs are applicable.

The PickSolution method does not return a value to indicate whether the user selected an XML expansion pack or clicked Cancel in the dialog box. Check the SolutionID property after calling PickSolution to determine whether an XML expansion pack has been attached.

If the smart document developer has failed to specify "targetApplication" in the XML expansion pack manifest file, the list displayed by PickSolution may include XML expansion packs that are not targeted to the active application; for example, an Excel user may see XML expansion packs targeted exclusively to Word. In these circumstances, the user may select an XML expansion pack that is not appropriate for the active application.

For more information on smart documents or XML expansion packs for smart documents, please see the Smart Document Software Development Kit (SDK) on the Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) Web site.
