Remarks

A Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Document object provides the same members as a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document object from the Word primary interop assembly, but it adds the following features:

In an application-level project, you can create a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Document object by using the GetVstoObject method. For more information, see Extending Word Documents and Excel Workbooks in VSTO Add-ins at Run Time.

In a document-level project, you typically do not use Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Document objects directly. Instead, use the ThisDocument class to programmatically access the document in your project. The ThisDocument class derives most of its members from the Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.DocumentBase class. This class redirects all calls to its members to an internal implementation of the Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Document interface in the Visual Studio Tools for Office runtime. For more information, see Programming Document-Level Customizations.

Note

This interface is implemented by the Visual Studio Tools for Office runtime. It is not intended to be implemented in your code. For more information, see Visual Studio Tools for Office Runtime Overview.

Usage

This documentation describes the version of this type that is used in Office projects that target the .NET Framework 4 or later.
