Specify Controls in Selection in VSTO

Question

I'm using Word Solution application-level project. It's possible to access Controls in a Document, But I need to access Controls in a user selection. Any thought?

Hi Mostapha

I'm moving your question to the VSTO forum where you'll find more people working with the VSTO technology.

But in order to answer your question we'll need more information:

1. Version of Word and of VSTO involved?

2. What kind of controls: Word content controls? Word ActiveX controls? VSTO controls placed on the document surface? Something else?

Thanks Cindy. Sorry if my question was not clear.

I'm using Office 2010 and VS 2010.

I mean Word content controls such as  "Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.RichTextContentControl" that are used in content of a Word document.

Hi Mostapha

Something like this:

Globals.ThisAddin.Application.Selection.Range.ContentControls
