Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v24.1.Core.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.RichEdit.Core, DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

C#

string Template { get; set; }

VB.NET

Property Template As String

Property Value

Type	Description
String	The template name.

Remarks

The Template property is for informational purposes only and usually contains only the file name of the template without the path. It does not allow you to specify a custom template for a document.

The code sample below shows how to specify the Template property:

C#

using DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native;

private void AddNewProperties(RichEditDocumentServer wordProcessor)
{
    Document document = wordProcessor.Document;
    document.BeginUpdate();

    document.DocumentProperties.Manager = "John Doe";
    document.DocumentProperties.Company = "TestDoc";
    document.DocumentProperties.Application = "My Application";
    document.DocumentProperties.Template = "MyTemplate.dotm";
    document.DocumentProperties.AppVersion = "2.0";

    document.EndUpdate();
}

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native

Private Sub AddNewProperties(ByVal wordProcessor As RichEditDocumentServer)
  Dim document As Document = wordProcessor.Document
  document.BeginUpdate()

  document.DocumentProperties.Manager = "John Doe"
  document.DocumentProperties.Company = "TestDoc"
  document.DocumentProperties.Application = "My Application"
  document.DocumentProperties.Template = "MyTemplate.dotm"
  document.DocumentProperties.AppVersion = "2.0"

  document.EndUpdate()
End Sub

Note

Microsoft Word resets the Template property to Normal.dotm if the property value does not match with a name from the Word template collection.
