true if the document is final; otherwise, false.
Examples
The following code example retrieves the Final property of the current document. If the document is not already final, the code shows a message that informs the user that the document is not final, and then sets the Final property to true. Word also displays a message before the document is marked final. If the document is already final, the code shows a message that informs the user that the document is already final. To use this example, run it from the ThisDocument class in a document-level project.
private void SetDocumentToFinal()
{
if (this.Final == false)
{
MessageBox.Show("The current document is not final. Setting "
+ "it to be final.");
this.Final = true;
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("The current document is final.");
}
}
Private Sub SetDocumentToFinal()
If Me.Final = False Then
MessageBox.Show("The current document is not final. " + _
"Setting it to be final.")
Me.Final = True
Else
MessageBox.Show("The current document is final.")
End If
End Sub
Remarks
If you set this property to true, Microsoft Office Word marks the document as final, notifies recipients (if any) that the document is final, and sets the document to read-only.
