This example is for a document-level customization.
Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange previousRange;
private void SelectPrevious()
{
previousRange = this.Controls.AddNamedRange(
this.Range["C1"], "prefixRange");
this.previousRange.Previous.Select();
}
Private previousRange As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange
Private Sub SelectPrevious()
previousRange = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange( _
Me.Range("C1"), "prefixRange")
Me.previousRange.Previous.Select()
End Sub
Remarks
This property emulates pressing SHIFT+TAB; unlike the key combination, however, the property returns the previous cell without selecting it.
On a protected sheet, this property returns the previous unlocked cell. On an unprotected sheet, this property always returns the cell immediately to the left of the specified cell.
