) : RadioButton

Parameters

  • left
    Type: System.Single

    The distance in points between the left edge of the control and the left edge of the document.

  • top
    Type: System.Single

    The distance in points between the top edge of the control and the top edge of the document.

  • height
    Type: System.Single

    The height of the control in points.

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Controls.RadioButton
The RadioButton control that was added to the ControlCollection instance.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

The name argument is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or has zero length.

ControlNameAlreadyExistsException

A control with the same name is already in the ControlCollection instance.

Remarks

This method enables you to add RadioButton objects to the end of the ControlCollection.

To remove a RadioButton that was added programmatically, use the Remove method.

When you add multiple radio buttons directly to the document, the radio buttons are not mutually exclusive. You can write code to make the radio buttons mutually exclusive; however, the preferred approach is to add the radio buttons to a user control and then add the user control to the document.

Examples

The following code example adds two RadioButton controls to the document, and then assigns text to each control.

Private Sub WordAddRadioButton()
    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()
    Dim RadioButton1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Controls. _
        RadioButton = Me.Controls.AddRadioButton(0, 0, 78, 18, _
        "RadioButton1")
    Dim RadioButton2 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Controls. _
        RadioButton = Me.Controls.AddRadioButton(0, 18, 78, 18, _
        "RadioButton2")
    RadioButton1.Text = "Bold"
    RadioButton2.Text = "Italic" 

End Sub
private void WordAddRadioButton()
{
    this.Paragraphs[1].Range.InsertParagraphBefore();
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Controls.RadioButton
         radioButton1 = this.Controls.AddRadioButton(
         0, 0, 78, 18, "radioButton1");
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Controls.RadioButton
         radioButton2 = this.Controls.AddRadioButton(
         0, 18, 78, 18, "radioButton2");
    radioButton1.Text = "Bold";
    radioButton2.Text = "Italic";
}
