Private Sub DisplayCreator()
    If Me.CustomerLastNameCell.Creator = Excel.XlCreator.xlCreatorCode Then
        MsgBox("This XmlMappedRange was created in " & _
            "Microsoft Office Excel.")
    Else
        MsgBox("This XmlMappedRange was not created in " & _
            "Microsoft Office Excel.")
    End If 
End Sub
private void DisplayCreator()
{
    if (this.CustomerLastNameCell.Creator == Excel.XlCreator.xlCreatorCode)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("This XmlMappedRange was created in " +
            "Microsoft Office Excel.");
    }
    else
    {
        MessageBox.Show("This XmlMappedRange was not created in " +
            "Microsoft Office Excel.");
    }
