To hide text in a Bookmark control while printing the document
Create a procedure that hides all text that is in a specified range.
Shared Sub HideText(ByVal rng As Word.Range)
rng.Font.Hidden = True
End Sub
static void HideText(Word.Range rng)
{
rng.Font.Hidden = 1; // 1 = True
}
Create a procedure that unhides all text that is in a specified range.
Shared Sub UnhideText(ByVal rng As Word.Range)
rng.Font.Hidden = False
End Sub
static void UnhideText(Word.Range rng)
{
rng.Font.Hidden = 0; // 0 = False
}
Pass the range of a bookmark to the HideText method, print the document, and then pass the same range to the UnhideText method.
The following code example can be used in a document-level customization. To use this example, run it from the ThisDocument class in your project.
HideText(Bookmark1.Range)
Me.PrintOut()
UnhideText(Bookmark1.Range)
HideText(bookmark1.Range);
object oTrue = true;
object oFalse = false;
object range = Word.WdPrintOutRange.wdPrintAllDocument;
object items = Word.WdPrintOutItem.wdPrintDocumentContent;
object copies = "1";
object pages = "";
object pageType = Word.WdPrintOutPages.wdPrintAllPages;
this.PrintOut(
ref oTrue, ref oFalse, ref range, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
ref items, ref copies, ref pages, ref pageType, ref oFalse, ref oTrue,
ref missing, ref oFalse, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);
UnhideText(bookmark1.Range);
The following code example can be used in an application-level add-in. This example uses the active document. To use the example, run it from the ThisAddIn class in your project.
HideText(Bookmark1.Range)
Me.Application.ActiveDocument.PrintOut()
UnhideText(Bookmark1.Range)
HideText(bookmark1.Range);
object oTrue = true;
object oFalse = false;
object range = Word.WdPrintOutRange.wdPrintAllDocument;
object items = Word.WdPrintOutItem.wdPrintDocumentContent;
object copies = "1";
object pages = "";
object pageType = Word.WdPrintOutPages.wdPrintAllPages;
this.Application.ActiveDocument.PrintOut(
ref oTrue, ref oFalse, ref range, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
ref items, ref copies, ref pages, ref pageType, ref oFalse, ref oTrue,
ref missing, ref oFalse, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);
UnhideText(bookmark1.Range);
This code example assumes that the document contains a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word..::.Bookmark control (in a document-level customization) or Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word..::.Bookmark control (in an application-level add-in) that is named bookmark1.
