Examples

The following code example adds a PropertyGrid control and a Button control to the worksheet. The code then displays the properties of the button in the PropertyGrid.

Private Sub ExcelAddPropertyGrid()
    Dim PropertyGrid1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools. _
        Excel.Controls.PropertyGrid = Me.Controls. _
        AddPropertyGrid(0, 0, 150, 150, "PropertyGrid1")

    Dim Button1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel. _
        Controls.Button = Me.Controls.AddButton( _
        0, 160, 56.25, 17.25, "Button1")

    Button1.Text = "OK"
    PropertyGrid1.SelectedObject = Button1

End Sub

private void ExcelAddPropertyGrid()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.PropertyGrid
         propertyGrid1 = this.Controls.AddPropertyGrid(
         0, 0, 150, 150, "propertyGrid1");

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.Button button1 =
        this.Controls.AddButton(0, 160, 56.25, 17.25, "button1");
    button1.Text = "OK";
