customXmlInsRangeStart (Custom XML Markup Insertion Start)

This element specifies the beginning of a region in which all custom XML markup has been inserted and tracked as a revision. The id attribute on this element shall be used to link this element with the corresponding custom XML markup insertion end marker in the document.

Providing a physical representation of custom XML markup start and end tags results in regions which can be inserted and deleted independently, but cannot be encapsulated by a single revision element, since their representation in WordprocessingML is the start or end XML tag for the custom XML markup which it represents. Therefore, the start/end "cross structure" annotation format surrounds the WordprocessingML region to which this deletion applies.

The following restrictions shall be applied to this element:

• If this element occurs without a corresponding customXmlInsRangeEnd element (§2.13.5.6) with a matching id attribute value, then this revision is ill-formed, and the revision may be ignored or all custom XML from this point forward may be treated as inserted.

• If this element and its paired end encapsulate a range with no custom XML markup, then they shall be ignored and may be omitted when the document is subsequently saved.

• If multiple start elements exist with the same id attribute value, then the each instance in the document shall be matched with an end in document order, and unmatched starts (no corresponding end) shall be handled as described above.

This element specifies the end of a region within which all custom XML markup has been inserted and tracked as a revision. The id attribute on this element shall be used to link this element with the corresponding custom XML markup insertion start marker in the document.

Providing a physical representation of the start and end tags of custom XML markup results in regions which can be inserted and deleted independently, but cannot be encapsulated by a single revision element, since their representation in WordprocessingML is the start or end XML tag for the custom XML markup which it represents. Therefore, the start/end "cross structure" annotation format surrounds the WordprocessingML region to which this insertion applies.

The following restrictions shall be applied to this element:

• If this element occurs without a corresponding customXmlInsRangeStart element (§2.13.5.7) with a matching id attribute value, then it shall be ignored and no insertions shall be present in the document.

• If this element and its paired start encapsulate a range with no custom XML markup, then they shall be ignored and may be omitted when the document is subsequently saved.

• If multiple end elements exist with the same id attribute value, then the first instance in the document shall be used and subsequent elements should be treated as unmatched (no corresponding start).

[Example: Consider a document with two inline custom XML markup elements, as follows:

<w:p>
<w:customXml … >
<w:customXml … >
<w:r>
<w:t>Text.</w:t>
</w:r>
</w:customXml>
</w:customXml>
<w:r>
<w:t>More text.</w:t>
</w:r>
</w:p>

If each custom XML markup element's start and end tag have a physical representation, consider that the inner XML element (but not its content) is inserted with revisions enabled. This revision cannot be encapsulated by one ins element, since the text in the element is not an insertion, so it must be done using the custom XML markup revision "cross structure" syntax, as follows:

<w:p>
<w:customXml … >
<w:customXmlInsRangeStart w:id="0" />
<w:customXml … >
<w:r>
<w:t>Text.</w:t>
</w:r>
</w:customXml>
<w:customXmlInsRangeEnd w:id="0" />
</w:customXml>
<w:r>
<w:t>More text.</w:t>
</w:r>
</w:p>

The customXmlInsRangeStart element delimits the start of the region in which all custom XML elements have been inserted with revisions enabled. Since this element only affects custom XML, the text is not revision marked inserted, but the corresponding physical characters for the custom XML element are. end example]

Attributes	Description
author (Annotation Author)	Specifies the author for an annotation within a WordprocessingML document. If this attribute is omitted, then no author shall be associated with the parent annotation type. [Example: Consider a comment represented using the following WordprocessingML fragment: <w:… w:id="1" w:author="Example Author"> … </w:…> The author attribute specifies that the author of the current annotation is Example Author, which may be used as desired. end example] The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_String simple type (§2.18.89).
date (Annotation Date)	Specifies the date information for an annotation within a WordprocessingML document. The use of this information is outside of the scope of this Office Open XML Standard. If this attribute is omitted, then no date information shall be associated with the parent annotation type. [Example: Consider a comment represented using the following WordprocessingML fragment: <w:… w:id="1" w:date="2006-01-01T10:00:00"> … </w:…> The date attribute specifies that the date of the current annotation is January 1st 2006 at 10:00 AM, which may be used as desired. end example] The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_DateTime simple type (§2.18.15).
id (Annotation Identifier)	Specifies a unique identifier for an annotation within a WordprocessingML document. The restrictions on the id attribute, if any, are defined by the parent XML element. If this attribute is omitted, then the document is non-conformant. [Example: Consider an annotation represented using the following WordprocessingML fragment: <w:… w:id="1" … > … </w:…> The id attribute specifies that the ID of the current annotation is 1. This value is used to uniquely identify this annotation within the document content. end example] The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_DecimalNumber simple type (§2.18.16).
