You can delete most host controls in the same way you delete Windows Forms controls, by selecting the control and pressing the DELETE key. You cannot delete NamedRange controls with the DELETE key because there is no visual representation of the control on the worksheet, and the function of the DELETE key on selected cells is to delete the text within the cells. In Microsoft Office Excel, you must use the Excel Define Name dialog box to delete the NamedRange controls.
Note
Your computer might show different names or locations for some of the Visual Studio user interface elements in the following instructions. The Visual Studio edition that you have and the settings that you use determine these elements. For more information, see Visual Studio Settings.
