Examples
The following code example uses the Copy method to create copies of the current worksheet before Sheet1 and after Sheet3. The example uses the InnerObject property to access the underlying Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet for Sheet1 and Sheet3.
This example is for a document-level customization.
private void CopyWorksheet()
{
// Copy this worksheet before Sheet1.
this.Copy(Globals.Sheet1.InnerObject);
// Copy this worksheet after Sheet3.
this.Copy(Globals.Sheet3.InnerObject);
}
Private Sub CopyWorksheet()
' Copy this worksheet before Sheet1.
Me.Copy(Globals.Sheet1.InnerObject)
' Copy this worksheet after Sheet3.
Me.Copy(After:=Globals.Sheet3.InnerObject)
End Sub
Remarks
The new worksheet is a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet object and does not have the code or data binding capability that worksheet host items have.
If you do not specify either Before or After, Microsoft Office Excel creates a new workbook that contains the copied sheet.
