Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to set a variety of formatting and display characteristics of a NamedRange control named NamedRange1. In particular, this example sets the HorizontalAlignment property to xlHAlignCenter so that the contents of the range are centered horizontally within the bounds of each cell.

This example is for a document-level customization.

private void SetRangeFormats()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange namedRange1 =
        this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A1", "A5"],
        "namedRange1");

    namedRange1.NoteText("This is a Formatting test");
    namedRange1.Value2 = "Martha";
    namedRange1.Font.Name = "Verdana";
    namedRange1.VerticalAlignment = Excel.XlVAlign.xlVAlignCenter;
    namedRange1.HorizontalAlignment = Excel.XlHAlign.xlHAlignCenter;
    namedRange1.BorderAround(missing, Excel.XlBorderWeight.xlThick, 
        Excel.XlColorIndex.xlColorIndexAutomatic);
    namedRange1.AutoFormat(Excel.XlRangeAutoFormat.xlRangeAutoFormat3DEffects1,
        true, false, true, false, true, true);

    if (MessageBox.Show("Clear the formatting and notes?", "Test",
        MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == DialogResult.Yes)
    {
        namedRange1.ClearFormats();
        namedRange1.ClearNotes();
    }
}

Private Sub SetRangeFormats()
    Dim namedRange1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange _
        = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("A1", "A5"), _
        "namedRange1")

    namedRange1.NoteText("This is a Formatting test", , )
    namedRange1.Value2 = "Martha"
    namedRange1.Font.Name = "Verdana"
    namedRange1.VerticalAlignment = Excel.XlVAlign.xlVAlignCenter
    namedRange1.HorizontalAlignment = Excel.XlHAlign.xlHAlignCenter
    namedRange1.BorderAround(, Excel.XlBorderWeight.xlThick, _
        Excel.XlColorIndex.xlColorIndexAutomatic, )
    namedRange1.AutoFormat( _
        Excel.XlRangeAutoFormat.xlRangeAutoFormat3DEffects1, _
        True, False, True, False, True, True)

    If MessageBox.Show("Clear the formatting and notes?", _
        "Test", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) = DialogResult.Yes Then
        namedRange1.ClearFormats()
        namedRange1.ClearNotes()
    End If
End Sub
