The name or range argument is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), or the name argument has zero length.

ControlNameAlreadyExistsException

A control with the same name is already in the ControlCollection instance.

InvalidRangeException

The range that was specified is not valid. Multi-area ranges cannot be used. The range should be on the same worksheet as the ControlCollection instance.

The AddTrackBar method enables you to add TrackBar objects to the end of the ControlCollection. To remove a TrackBar that was previously added programmatically, use the Remove method.

The control automatically resizes when the range is resized.

Examples

The following code example adds a TrackBar control to cells A1 through B2, and then sets the number of positions between Ticks on the TrackBar.

Private Sub ExcelRangeAddTrackBar()
    Dim TrackBar1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel. _
        Controls.TrackBar = Me.Controls.AddTrackBar( _
        Me.Range("A1", "B2"), "TrackBar1")

    TrackBar1.TickFrequency = 2

End Sub
private void ExcelRangeAddTrackBar()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.TrackBar
         trackBar1 = this.Controls.AddTrackBar(
         this.Range["A1", "B2"], "trackBar1");
    trackBar1.TickFrequency = 2;
}
