Examples

The following code example adds an HScrollBar control to the top of the worksheet, and then moves the scroll box to the center of the scroll bar. To use this example, run it from the Sheet1 class in a document-level project.

Private Sub ExcelAddHScrollBar()

        Dim HScrollBar1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools. _
            Excel.Controls.HScrollBar = Me.Controls. _
            AddHScrollBar(0, 0, 100, 15, "HScrollBar1")
        HScrollBar1.Value = 50

    End Sub
private void ExcelAddHScrollBar()
{

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.HScrollBar
        hScrollBar1 = this.Controls.AddHScrollBar(
        0, 0, 100, 15, "hScrollBar1");
    hScrollBar1.Value = 50;
