17.18.21 ST_EdGrp

This simple type specifies the set of possible aliases (or editing groups) which can be used as aliases to determine if the current user shall be allowed to edit a single range defined by a range permission within a document. This mechanism simply provides a set of predefined editing groups which can be associated with user accounts by applications in any desired manner.

[Example: Consider a range permission defined as follows:

<w:permStart w:id="0" w:edGrp="editors" …
…
<w:permEnd w:id="0" />

The edGrp attribute value of editors specifies that only user(s) who the current application associates with the editors group must be allowed to edit the contents between the start and end markers when document protection is being enforced. end example]
