Property Value

Type: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange._AddressType
A string that represents the range reference of the NamedRange control in R1C1-stye or A1-style notation.

Remarks

The Address property is intended to be used with the following parameters.

If you attempt to use Address without specifying any parameters, Address will get a NamedRange._AddressType object that is part of the Visual Studio Tools for Office infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

If the reference contains more than one cell, RowAbsolute and ColumnAbsolute apply to all rows and columns.

Optional Parameters

For information on optional parameters, see The Variable missing and Optional Parameters in Office Solutions.

Examples

The following code example creates a NamedRange and then displays the address of the NamedRange in four formats.

This version is for a document-level customization.

Private Sub DisplayAddress()
    Dim namedRange1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange _
        = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("A2", "C4"), _
        "namedRange1")

    ' The following code will display "$A$2:$C$4".
    MessageBox.Show(namedRange1.Address(True, True, _
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlA1, False, ))

    ' The following code will display "$A2:$C4".
    MessageBox.Show(namedRange1.Address(False, True, _
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlA1, False, ))

    ' The following code will display "R2C1:R4C3".
    MessageBox.Show(namedRange1.Address(True, True, _
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlR1C1, False, ))

    ' The following code will display "R[-1]C[-2]:R[1]C".
    MessageBox.Show(namedRange1.Address(False, False, _
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlR1C1, False, Me.Cells(3, 3)))
End Sub

private void DisplayAddress()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange namedRange1 =
        this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A2","C4"],
        "namedRange1");

    // The following code will display "$A$2:$C$4".
    MessageBox.Show(namedRange1.Address[true, true,
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlA1, false, missing]);

    // The following code will display "$A2:$C4".
    MessageBox.Show(namedRange1.Address[false, true,
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlA1, false, missing]);

    // The following code will display "R2C1:R4C3".
    MessageBox.Show(namedRange1.Address[true, true,
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlR1C1, false, missing]);

    // The following code will display "R[-1]C[-2]:R[1]C".
    MessageBox.Show(namedRange1.Address[false, false,
        Excel.XlReferenceStyle.xlR1C1, false, this.Cells[3, 3]]);
}
