Document Change / Selection Change Events

[Chandan Banga]

Hi,

Is any one can help me on events of document

Like.. I want to capture the events of selection change

e.g. if someone type , delete, selection anything I caputure that..

This is because I want to protect document based on some condition. But I do
not have to use Protection feature of MS Word.

Is there any way that I can capture selection change event of document.

You have to raise the eventhandler to the application level and the events
Document_Change and Selection_Change will be available to you.

Look here for a complete tutorial on application events for MS Word:

Hey Perry,

Thanks for this valuable suggestions.

I was also going through that only. But the problem here i found is that
using WindowSelectionChange event we can caption selection that is raised by
arrow key and mouse. But if we type something then event handler does not
recognized selection change.

using Selection Change and Document Change we can handle some portion of it
like we can restricts mouse clicks and arrow click activities. But editing
can not be done by this method.


What I am looking is providing a robust security feature inside my word
template without using the existing single password protection feature of
word.
