### Description

The DocumentTarget class represents a text position in a Text Control document that can be a target of a document link or a bookmark. For more information see the technical article Text Fields and Hypertext Links.

### Syntax

```csharp
public class DocumentTarget
```

```vbnet
Public Class DocumentTarget
```

### Examples

The following example shows how to insert a DocumentTarget and a corresponding DocumentLink into a document.

```csharp
textControl1.ViewMode = TXTextControl.ViewMode.PageView;
textControl1.Text = "Page 1\fPage 2\fPage 3";
textControl1.Select(3, 0);

TXTextControl.DocumentTarget newTarget = new TXTextControl.DocumentTarget("Page1");

textControl1.DocumentTargets.Add(newTarget);
textControl1.InputPosition = new TXTextControl.InputPosition(2, 1, 3);
TXTextControl.DocumentLink newLink = new TXTextControl.DocumentLink("Jump to page 1", newTarget);
textControl1.DocumentLinks.Add(newLink);
```

```vbnet
TextControl1.ViewMode = TXTextControl.ViewMode.PageView
TextControl1.Text = "Page 1" + Chr(12) + "Page 2" + Chr(12) + "Page 3"
TextControl1.Select(3, 0)

Dim newTarget As TXTextControl.DocumentTarget = New TXTextControl.DocumentTarget("Page1")

TextControl1.DocumentTargets.Add(newTarget)
TextControl1.InputPosition = New TXTextControl.InputPosition(2, 1, 3)
Dim newLink As TXTextControl.DocumentLink = New TXTextControl.DocumentLink("Jump to page 1", newTarget)
TextControl1.DocumentLinks.Add(newLink)
```

The following example creates a named destination for an internal document link.

```csharp
DocumentTarget documentTarget = new("CustomerDetails");
textControl.DocumentTargets.Add(documentTarget);
```

```vbnet
Dim documentTarget As New DocumentTarget("CustomerDetails")
textControl.DocumentTargets.Add(documentTarget)
```
