Parameters
- listObject
Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.ListObject
The native list object to extend. Do not supply this parameter yourself. When you call this method on an Excel list object, the runtime supplies this parameter.

Usage Note
In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type ListObject. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
Remarks
In a document-level customization, you can call this method to get a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ListObject host control that is in the current customization. If the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.ListObject object on which you call this method is not the underlying object of a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ListObject host control in the current customization, this method returns nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
This method is provided for backward compatibility with Office projects that you retarget from the .NET Framework 3.5 to the .NET Framework 4. In new projects that target the .NET Framework 4, you should call the GetVstoObject method that is provided by the Globals.Factory object in your project.
