Examples

In the following example, the Add method is used to add a new user to the form, assign that user to the Full Control access level, and set an expiration date of two days from the current date.

This example requires a using or Imports directive for the Microsoft.Office.Core namespace in the declarations section of the form module.

_XDocument3 thisDoc = (_XDocument3)thisXDocument;

string strExpirationDate = DateTime.Today.AddDays(2).ToString();
DateTime dtExpirationDate = DateTime.Parse(strExpirationDate);

thisDoc.Permission.Add("someone@example.com",
   msoPermission.msoPermissionFullControl, dtExpirationDate);
Dim thisDoc As _XDocument3 = DirectCast(thisXDocument, _XDocument3)

Dim strExpirationDate As String = _
   DateTime.Today.AddDays(2).ToString()
dtExpirationDate As DateTime = DateTime.Parse(strExpirationDate)

thisDoc.Permission.UserPermissions.Add("someone@example.com", _
   msoPermission.msoPermissionFullControl, dtExpirationDate)

Remarks

To access the MsoPermission enumeration values for setting the varPermission parameter, you must set a reference to the Microsoft Office 14.0 Object Library using COM tab of the Add Reference dialog box in Visual Studio 2012 or Visual Studio. This will establish a reference to the members of the Microsoft.Office.Core namespace.
