Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.v4.0.Utilities (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.v4.0.Utilities.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub Route
public void Route()

Remarks

If the document does not have a routing slip, an exception is thrown. Use the HasRoutingSlip property to determine whether there is a routing slip attached to the document. Routing a document sets the Routed property to true.

Examples

The following code example creates a routing slip for the document, filling in the subject and recipient. The code then routes the document to the recipient. To use this example, run it from the ThisDocument class in a document-level project.

Private Sub DocumentRoute()
    Me.HasRoutingSlip = True 
    Me.RoutingSlip.Subject = "Your feedback is needed." 
    Me.RoutingSlip.AddRecipient("someone@example.com")
    Me.Route()
End Sub
private void DocumentRoute()
{
    this.HasRoutingSlip = true;
    this.RoutingSlip.Subject = "Your feedback is needed.";
    this.RoutingSlip.AddRecipient("someone@example.com");
    this.Route();
}
