Examples

The following code example uses the Consolidate method to consolidate the values of cell A1 on Sheet2 and cell A1 on Sheet3 into an XmlMappedRange on Sheet1. The example consolidates the values by adding the values together. This code example assumes that Sheet1 contains an XmlMappedRange named CustomerLastNameCell.

Private Sub ConsolidateCells()
    Globals.Sheet2.Range("A1").Value2 = 1710
    Globals.Sheet3.Range("A1").Value2 = 1240

    Dim Source As String() = {"Sheet2!R1C1", "Sheet3!R1C1"}
    Globals.Sheet1.CustomerAddress1Cell.Consolidate(Source, _
        Excel.XlConsolidationFunction.xlSum, False, False, False)
End Sub
private void ConsolidateCells()
{
    Globals.Sheet2.Range["A1", missing].Value2 = 1710;
    Globals.Sheet3.Range["A1", missing].Value2 = 1240;

    string[] source = new string[] { "Sheet2!R1C1", "Sheet3!R1C1" };
    Globals.Sheet1.CustomerAddress1Cell.Consolidate(source, 
        Excel.XlConsolidationFunction.xlSum,
        false, false, false);
}
