Parameter

Description

Type

One of the WdCompatibility values that specifies the compatibility option to check for.

If you use the Compatibility() property without specifying a parameter, it returns a Document_CompatibilityType object that is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Compatibility options affect how a document is displayed in Microsoft Office Word. Some of the WdCompatibility values might not be available to you, depending on the language support (U.S. English, for example) that you have selected or installed.

Examples

The following code example suppresses the space before a paragraph if the paragraph is located after a hard page break. To use this example, run it from the ThisDocument class in a document-level project.

Private Sub DocumentCompatibility()
    Me.Compatibility(Word.WdCompatibility.wdSuppressSpBfAfterPgBrk) = True
End Sub
private void DocumentCompatibility()
{
    this.Compatibility[Word.WdCompatibility.wdSuppressSpBfAfterPgBrk] = true;
}
