) 

Parameters

TagID
A unique tag identifier of the tag's tree element to be attached to the specified annotation object. You can obtain this identifier using the NewTag method.
AnnotationIdx
The 0-based index of the required annotation within the current page. It must be a value from 0 to GetAnnotationCount-1.

Return Value
