Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v4.0.Utilities (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v4.0.Utilities.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function XmlImportXml ( _
    data As String, _
    <OutAttribute> ByRef importMap As XmlMap, _
    overwrite As Object, _
    destination As Object _
) As XlXmlImportResult
public XlXmlImportResult XmlImportXml(
    string data,
    out XmlMap importMap,
    Object overwrite,
    Object destination
)

Parameters

  • overwrite
    Type: System.Object

    If a value is not specified for the Destination parameter, then this parameter specifies whether or not to overwrite data that has been mapped to the schema map specified in the ImportMap parameter. Set to true to overwrite the data or false to append the new data to the existing data. The default value is true. If a value is specified for the Destination parameter, then this parameter specifies whether or not to overwrite existing data. Set to true to overwrite existing data or false to cancel the import if data would be overwritten. The default value is true.

  • destination
    Type: System.Object

    The data will be imported into a new XML list in the Range specified.

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlXmlImportResult
One of the XlXmlImportResult values.

Remarks

Do not specify a value for the Destination parameter if you want to import data into an existing mapping.

The following conditions will cause this method to generate run-time errors:

  • The specified XML data contains syntax errors.

  • The import process was cancelled because the specified data cannot fit into the worksheet.

Use the XmlImport method to import an XML data file into the current workbook.

Optional Parameters

For information on optional parameters, see Optional Parameters in Office Solutions.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to import XML data into a workbook. The example creates a DataSet of customer names and adds an XmlMap based on the XML schema for the DataSet to the XmlMaps collection of the current workbook. The example then calls the XmlImportXml method to import the data into worksheet Sheet1. When the XmlImportXml method is called, the BeforeXmlImport event handler prompts the user to either proceed with or cancel importing the XML, and the AfterXmlImport event handler reports whether the XML was successfully imported.

This example is for a document-level customization.
