Examples
The following code example uses the BorderAround method to apply a thick border around an XmlMappedRange. The example then prompts the user to clear the border by using the ClearFormats method. This code example assumes that the current worksheet contains an XmlMappedRange named CustomerLastNameCell.
Private Sub SetBorder()
Me.CustomerLastNameCell.BorderAround( _
Weight:=Excel.XlBorderWeight.xlThick, _
ColorIndex:=Excel.XlColorIndex.xlColorIndexAutomatic)
If MessageBox.Show("Clear the border?", "Test", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) = _
DialogResult.Yes Then
Me.CustomerLastNameCell.ClearFormats()
End If
End Sub
private void SetBorder()
{
this.CustomerLastNameCell.BorderAround(missing,
Excel.XlBorderWeight.xlThick,
Excel.XlColorIndex.xlColorIndexAutomatic, missing);
if (MessageBox.Show("Clear the border?", "Test",
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == DialogResult.Yes)
{
this.CustomerLastNameCell.ClearFormats();
}
}
