Return Value

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type ControlCollection. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	The name argument is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or has zero length.
ControlNameAlreadyExistsException	A control with the same name is already in the ControlCollection instance.

Remarks

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

Examples

The following code example adds a VScrollBar control to the top of the worksheet, and then moves the scroll box to the center of the scroll bar. To use this example, run it from the Sheet1 class in a document-level project.

Private Sub ExcelAddVScrollBar()
    Dim VScrollBar1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel. _
        Controls.VScrollBar = Me.Controls.AddVScrollBar( _
        0, 0, 15, 100, "VScrollBar1")

    VScrollBar1.Value = 50

End Sub

private void ExcelAddVScrollBar()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.VScrollBar
        vScrollBar1 = this.Controls.AddVScrollBar(
        0, 0, 15, 100, "vScrollBar1");
    vScrollBar1.Value = 50;
}
