Word VSTO - Adding a tag to a Word file

I'd like to mark documents processed by my add-in in such a way that the user can see it, but without affecting the contents of the document. In Word, if you go to the File menu you'll find you can add tags to your Word files. Those tags can be displayed in the Windows Explorer if you enable the "Tags" column. Tags can also be set from the Explorer.

I haven't been able to find how to access those tags programmatically. Can anyone give me a hint ?

You are looking for Document.BuiltInDocumentProperties.

For example:

var properties = (Microsoft.Office.Core.DocumentProperties)
             Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties;

properties["Keywords"].Value = "Processed by my add-in";
