Aspose::Words::Fields::FormField::get_ExitMacro method

FormField::get_ExitMacro method

Returns or sets an exit macro name for the form field.

System::String Aspose::Words::Fields::FormField::get_ExitMacro()

Remarks

The exit macro runs when the form field loses the focus in Microsoft Word.

Microsoft Word allows strings with at most 32 characters.

Examples

Shows how insert different kinds of form fields into a document, and process them with using a document visitor implementation.
