ApplicationFactory.HasVstoObject Method (_Workbook)
Returns a value that indicates whether a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Workbook host item exists for the specified Excel workbook object.
Namespace: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel
Assemblies: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.dll)
Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v4.0.Utilities (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v4.0.Utilities.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Function HasVstoObject ( _
workbook As _Workbook _
) As Boolean
bool HasVstoObject(
_Workbook workbook
)
Parameters
workbook
Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._WorkbookThe native workbook object to test. Although this parameter is of type Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Workbook, you typically pass a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook object to this method.
Return Value
Type: System.Boolean
true if a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Workbook host item exists for the specified Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook object; otherwise, false.
Remarks
You can call this method in an application-level add-in to test for the existence of managed controls that you want to persist before closing or saving the Excel workbook.
Note
The workbook parameter is of type Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Workbook, which is the parent interface of Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook. Therefore, this method can accept objects of both types: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Workbook and Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook. Typically, when you reference an Excel workbook, you use a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook.
Examples
The following code example checks whether the current workbook has an associated host item. To use this code, run it from the ThisAddIn class in an Excel add-in project that targets the .NET Framework 4 or the .NET Framework 4.5.
Private Sub Application_WorkbookBeforeSave( _
ByVal Wb As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook, _
ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, _
ByRef Cancel As Boolean) Handles Application.WorkbookBeforeSave
If Globals.Factory.HasVstoObject(Wb) = True Then
For Each interopSheet As Excel.Worksheet In Wb.Worksheets
If Globals.Factory.HasVstoObject(interopSheet) = True Then
Dim vstoSheet As Worksheet = Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(interopSheet)
If vstoSheet.Controls.Count > 0 Then
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show( _
"The VSTO controls are not persisted when you" _
+ " save and close this workbook.", _
"Controls Persistence", _
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBoxButtons.OK, _
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBoxIcon.Warning)
Exit For
End If
End If
Next
End If
End Sub
void Application_WorkbookBeforeSave(
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook Wb, bool SaveAsUI,
ref bool Cancel)
{
if (Globals.Factory.HasVstoObject(Wb) == true)
{
foreach (Excel.Worksheet interopSheet in Wb.Worksheets)
{
if (Globals.Factory.HasVstoObject(interopSheet) == true)
{
Worksheet vstoSheet = Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(interopSheet);
if (vstoSheet.Controls.Count > 0)
{
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(
"The VSTO controls are not persisted when you"
+ " save and close this workbook.",
"Controls Persistence",
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBoxButtons.OK,
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBoxIcon.Warning);
break;
