        Dim beforeMergeAddress As String = _
            namedRange2.MergeArea.Address(, , _
            Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlA1, , )

        MessageBox.Show("Before merging, the MergeArea property is '" & _
            beforeMergeAddress & "' and the MergeCells property is " & _
            " '" & namedRange2.MergeCells.ToString() & "'.")

        namedRange1.Select()
        namedRange1.Merge(False)

        Dim afterMergeAddress As String = _
            namedRange2.MergeArea.Address(, , _
            Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlA1, , )

        MessageBox.Show("After merging, the MergeArea property is '" & _
            afterMergeAddress & "' and the MergeCells property is " & _
            " '" & namedRange2.MergeCells.ToString() & "'.")
    End Sub
private void MergeRange()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange namedRange1 =
        this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A1", "A5"],
        "namedRange1");

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange namedRange2 =
        this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A1"],
        "namedRange2");

    string beforeMergeAddress = namedRange2.MergeArea.get_Address(
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlA1);

    MessageBox.Show("Before merging, the MergeArea property is '" +
        beforeMergeAddress + "' and the MergeCells property is " +
        " '" + namedRange2.MergeCells.ToString() + "'.");
