Create a Macro in Word using C#

This short guide describes how to create a macro in Word using C#. It provides details to set the IDE, a list of steps, and a sample macro code using C#. You will learn to create a VbaProject, a VbaModule, and set various properties.

Steps for Using Macros in Word in C#

  1. Set the environment to use Aspose.Words for .NET to work with VBA modules
  2. Import the required namespaces System, Aspose.Words, and Aspose.Words.Vba
  3. Create a new blank Word document using the Document class
  4. Assign a new VBA project to the document by initializing a VbaProject object
  5. Set VBA module name, type, and source code
  6. Add the created VBA module to the Modules collection of the document’s VBA project
  7. Save the document as a macro-enabled Word file

These steps summarize the process to create a macro for Word using C#. The code initializes a new Word document, attaches a VBA project, and defines a module with a macro by specifying its name, type, and source code. Finally, the module is added to the project, and the document is saved as a macro-enabled Word file.

This code assists in creating a macro enabled Word document using C#. The VbaProject assists in managing its code page, name, protection status, project references, and the modules contained within. The VbaModule class represents a single module within a VBA project, with properties to get/set its Name, Type (procedural, class, document, etc.), and SourceCode, and it supports cloning for duplication.
