Private Sub SetOutline()
        Dim namedRange1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange _
            = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("A1", "C5"), _
            "namedRange1")

        namedRange1.AutoOutline()

        If MessageBox.Show("Clear the outline?", "Test", _
            MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) = DialogResult.Yes Then
            namedRange1.ClearOutline()
        End If 
    End Sub
private void SetOutline()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange namedRange1 =
        this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A1", "C5"],
        "namedRange1");

    namedRange1.AutoOutline();

    if (MessageBox.Show("Clear the outline?", "Test",
        MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == DialogResult.Yes)
    {
        namedRange1.ClearOutline();
    }
