Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.InfoPath.TaskPanesCollection
Implements
Remarks
The TaskPanesCollection collection can be used only with the editing window types; if used with a designing window type, it will return an error.
Examples
In the following example, the TaskPanes property of the WindowObject object is used to set a reference to the TaskPanesCollection collection:
TaskPanes taskPanes;
taskPanes = thisXDocument.View.Window.TaskPanes;
In the following example, the Item property of the TaskPanesCollection collection is used to set a reference to a specified TaskPaneObject object. Then the code uses the Visible property of the TaskPaneObject object to make the task pane visible.
TaskPane taskPane;
// Show the built-in Help task pane.
taskPane = thisXDocument.View.Window.TaskPanes[4];
taskPane.Visible = true;
Note
The Item property argument is the type of task pane to return, based on the TaskPaneType property of the TaskPaneObject object, not the position of the TaskPaneObject object in the TaskPanesCollection collection.
