-  An actions pane is a customizable **Document Actions** task pane that is attached to a specific Microsoft Office Word document or Microsoft Office Excel workbook. The actions pane is hosted inside the Office task pane along with other built-in task panes, such as the **XML Source** task pane in Excel or the **Styles and Formatting** task pane in Word. You can use Windows Forms controls or WPF controls to design the actions pane user interface.

  The actions pane becomes visible at run time as soon as you explicitly add a control to it. After the actions pane is displayed, you can dynamically add or remove controls in response to the user's actions. Typically, you add the code to display the actions pane in the `Startup` event handler of `ThisDocument` or `ThisWorkbook` so that the actions pane is visible when the user first opens the document. However, you might want to display the actions pane only in response to a user's action in the document. For example, you might add the code to the `Click` event of a control on the document.
