EmbedSmartTags Property

Microsoft Word Visual Basic

expression.EmbedSmartTags

expression    Required. An expression that returns a Document object.

Remarks

Use the EmbedSmartTags property when sending documents to users who may not have the smart tag recognizer file on their computer. This allows the recipient to still have access to the smart tag information (and to the related actions if they have the smart tag actions file on their computer). However, if a document containing smart tags is edited by a user with an earlier version of Word, the smart tag information is removed.

Example

This example turns off saving smart tag information with the active document, which requires that recipients of the document have the necessary smart tag recognizer files registered on their computer and enabled through the Smart Tags tab of the AutoCorrect dialog.

Sub DontEmbedSmartTags()
    ActiveDocument.EmbedSmartTags = False
End Sub
