History<\/strong> 03\/11\/2008 – I’ve updated the demo code<\/a> to include examination of the customXML file that is populated by the content control example (ContentControl.docx). Demo 5 shows how we can inject our own XML into the content controls. <\/p>\n Demo 6 presents the few lines of code required to extract the XML (as populated by the content controls) into an XmlDocument. Once the customXML is in an XmlDocument we are free to access the nodes as required.<\/p>\n Thus we are now in a position were we can create a document with custom data present, pass it to a user, the user can amend the custom data, save the document and send it back to us. We can then extract that custom data for subsequent processing. I will prepare a short screencast to demonstrate this – watch this space.<\/p>\n 28\/10\/2008 – Posted pre-VBUG Newcastle<\/a> inaugural delivery of An Introduction to Open XML.

\nMatthew Scott: Application Development using the Open XML File Formats<\/a>
\nMatthew provides an excellent explanation of Word 2007’s content controls and customXML parts. Before OpenXML you probably found yourself using Word bookmarks to leave placeholders inside a Word document – content controls essentially replace those.<\/p>\n
