BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventHandler Delegate

Represents the method that will handle the BeforeAddDataBoundRow event of a ListObject.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Delegate Sub BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventHandler ( _
    sender As Object, _
    e As BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventArgs _
)

public delegate void BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventHandler(
    Object sender,
    BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventArgs e
)

Parameters

• sender
  Type: System.Object

  The source of the event.

• e
  Type: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventArgs

  A BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventArgs that contains the event data.

Remarks

When you create a BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventHandler delegate, you identify the method that will handle the event. To associate the event with your event handler, add an instance of the delegate to the event. The event handler is called whenever the event occurs, until you remove the delegate.

Examples

The following code example creates a DataTable and a ListObject, and binds the ListObject to the DataTable. It then creates a BeforeAddDataBoundRow event handler that cancels the addition of the new row. To test the event, manually add a new row to the ListObject on sheet 1.

This example is for a document-level customization.

WithEvents BeforeAddDataBoundRowList As _
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ListObject
Private Sub ListObject_BeforeAddDataBoundRow()
    ' Create a new DataSet and DataTable. 
    Dim ds As New DataSet()
    Dim dt As DataTable = ds.Tables.Add("Customers")
    dt.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("LastName"))
    dt.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("FirstName"))

    ' Add a new row to the DataTable. 
    Dim dr As DataRow = dt.NewRow()
    dr("LastName") = "Chan"
    dr("FirstName") = "Gareth"
    dt.Rows.Add(dr)

    ' Create a list object.
    BeforeAddDataBoundRowList = _
        Me.Controls.AddListObject(Me.Range("A1"), _
        "BeforeAddDataBoundRowList")

    ' Bind the list object to the DataTable.
    BeforeAddDataBoundRowList.AutoSetDataBoundColumnHeaders = True
    BeforeAddDataBoundRowList.SetDataBinding(ds, "Customers", _
        "LastName", "FirstName")
End Sub 


Private Sub List1_BeforeAddDataBoundRow(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.BeforeAddDataBoundRowEventArgs) _
    Handles BeforeAddDataBoundRowList.BeforeAddDataBoundRow
    e.Cancel = True
    MessageBox.Show("This data is read-only.")
