Examples

The following code example creates a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.SmartTag and then uses the Expressions property to add the regular expression "[I|i]ssue\s\d{5,6}" to the collection of regular expressions that the smart tag recognizes. This code example is part of a larger example provided for Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Action.

    private Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Action displayAddress;

    private void AddSmartTag()
    {
        Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.SmartTag smartTagDemo =
            Globals.Factory.CreateSmartTag(
                "www.microsoft.com/Demo#DemoSmartTag",
                "Demonstration Smart Tag");

        // Specify a term and an expression to recognize.
        smartTagDemo.Terms.Add("sale");
        smartTagDemo.Expressions.Add(
            new System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex(
            @"[I|i]ssue\s\d{5,6}"));

        displayAddress = Globals.Factory.CreateAction("To be replaced");


        // Add the action to the smart tag.
        smartTagDemo.Actions = new Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Action[] { 
            displayAddress };

        // Add the smart tag.
        this.VstoSmartTags.Add(smartTagDemo);

        displayAddress.BeforeCaptionShow += new 
            Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.BeforeCaptionShowEventHandler(
            DisplayAddress_BeforeCaptionShow);

        displayAddress.Click += new 
            Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ActionClickEventHandler(
            DisplayAddress_Click);
    }

WithEvents displayAddress As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Action

Private Sub AddSmartTag()

    Dim smartTagDemo As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.SmartTag = _
        Globals.Factory.CreateSmartTag(
        "www.microsoft.com/Demo#DemoSmartTag",
        "Demonstration Smart Tag")

    ' Specify a term and an expression to recognize.
    smartTagDemo.Terms.Add("sale")
    smartTagDemo.Expressions.Add( _
        New System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex( _
        "[I|i]ssue\s\d{5,6}"))

    displayAddress = Globals.Factory.CreateAction("To be replaced")

    ' Add the action to the smart tag.
    smartTagDemo.Actions = New Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Action() { _
            displayAddress}

    ' Add the smart tag.
    Me.VstoSmartTags.Add(smartTagDemo)
End Sub
