Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Object

Remarks

You must specify either ColorIndex or Color, but not both.

You can specify either LineStyle or Weight, but not both. If you do not specify either argument, Microsoft Office Excel uses the default line style and weight.

This method outlines the entire range without filling it in. To set the borders of all the cells, you must set the Color, LineStyle, and Weight properties for the Borders collection. To clear the border, you must set the LineStyle property to xlLineStyleNone for all the cells in the range.

Optional Parameters

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to set a variety of formatting and display characteristics of a NamedRange control named NamedRange1. In particular, this example uses the BorderAround method to draw a thick border around NamedRange1.

This example is for a document-level customization.

Private Sub SetRangeFormats()
        Dim namedRange1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange _
            = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("A1", "A5"), _
            "namedRange1")

        namedRange1.NoteText("This is a Formatting test", , )
        namedRange1.Value2 = "Martha"
        namedRange1.Font.Name = "Verdana"
        namedRange1.VerticalAlignment = Excel.XlVAlign.xlVAlignCenter
        namedRange1.HorizontalAlignment = Excel.XlHAlign.xlHAlignCenter
        namedRange1.BorderAround(, Excel.XlBorderWeight.xlThick, _
            Excel.XlColorIndex.xlColorIndexAutomatic, )
        namedRange1.AutoFormat( _
            Excel.XlRangeAutoFormat.xlRangeAutoFormat3DEffects1, _
            True, False, True, False, True, True)

        If MessageBox.Show("Clear the formatting and notes?", _
            "Test", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) = DialogResult.Yes Then
            namedRange1.ClearFormats()
            namedRange1.ClearNotes()
        End If 
    End Sub
private void SetRangeFormats()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange namedRange1 =
        this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A1", "A5"],
        "namedRange1");

    namedRange1.NoteText("This is a Formatting test");
    namedRange1.Value2 = "Martha";
    namedRange1.Font.Name = "Verdana";
    namedRange1.VerticalAlignment = Excel.XlVAlign.xlVAlignCenter;
    namedRange1.HorizontalAlignment = Excel.XlHAlign.xlHAlignCenter;
    namedRange1.BorderAround(missing, Excel.XlBorderWeight.xlThick, 
        Excel.XlColorIndex.xlColorIndexAutomatic);
    namedRange1.AutoFormat(Excel.XlRangeAutoFormat.xlRangeAutoFormat3DEffects1,
        true, false, true, false, true, true);

    if (MessageBox.Show("Clear the formatting and notes?", "Test",
        MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == DialogResult.Yes)
    {
        namedRange1.ClearFormats();
        namedRange1.ClearNotes();
    }
}
