IconCriteria Interface
Office 2010
Represents the collection of IconCriterion objects. Each IconCriterion represents the values and threshold type for each icon in an icon set conditional formatting rule.
Assembly: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel (in Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll)
The IconCriteria collection is returned from the IconCriteria property of the IconSetCondition object. You can access each IconCriterion object in the collection by passing an index into the collection. See the example for details.
The following code example creates a range of numbers representing test scores and then applies an icon set conditional formatting rule to that range. The type of icon set is then changed from the default icons to a five-arrow icon set. Finally, the threshold type is modified from percentile to a hard-coded number.
Sub CreateIconSetCF()
Dim cfIconSet As IconSetCondition
'Fill cells with sample data from 1 to 10
With ActiveSheet
.Range("C1") = 55
.Range("C2") = 92
.Range("C3") = 88
.Range("C4") = 77
.Range("C5") = 66
.Range("C6") = 93
.Range("C7") = 76
.Range("C8") = 80
.Range("C9") = 79
.Range("C10") = 83
.Range("C11") = 66
.Range("C12") = 74
End With
Range("C1:C12").Select
'Create an icon set conditional format for the created sample data range
Set cfIconSet = Selection.FormatConditions.AddIconSetCondition
'Change the icon set to a five-arrow icon set
cfIconSet.IconSet = ActiveWorkbook.IconSets(xl5Arrows)
'The IconCriterion collection contains all IconCriteria
'By indexing into the collection you can modify each criterion
With cfIconSet.IconCriteria(2)
.Type = xlConditionValueNumber
.Value = 60
.Operator = 7
End With
With cfIconSet.IconCriteria(3)
.Type = xlConditionValueNumber
.Value = 70
.Operator = 7
End With
With cfIconSet.IconCriteria(4)
.Type = xlConditionValueNumber
.Value = 80
.Operator = 7
End With
With cfIconSet.IconCriteria(5)
.Type = xlConditionValueNumber
.Value = 90
.Operator = 7
End With
End Sub
