private void ShowRowDifferences()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange rowDifferencesRange =
       this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A1", "C5"],
       "rowDifferencesRange");
    this.Range["A1", "A5"].Value2 = 11;
    this.Range["B1", "B5"].Value2 = 22;
    this.Range["C1", "C5"].Value2 = 33;
    Excel.Range range2 = rowDifferencesRange.RowDifferences(
        this.Range["B5"]);
    range2.Select();
}

Private Sub ShowRowDifferences()
    Dim rowDifferencesRange As _
        Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange = _
        Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("A1", "C5"), _
        "rowDifferencesRange")
    Me.Range("A1", "A5").Value2 = 11
    Me.Range("B1", "B5").Value2 = 22
    Me.Range("C1", "C5").Value2 = 33
    Dim range2 As Excel.Range = _
        rowDifferencesRange.RowDifferences(Me.Range("B5"))
    range2.Select()
End Sub
