Examples

The following code example sets the values of the cells in a NamedRange control to random numbers, and then uses the PrintOut method to print the contents of the named range.

This example is for a document-level customization.

Private Sub PrintOutPreviewRange()
        Dim namedRange1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange _
            = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("A1", "E5"), _
            "namedRange1")

        namedRange1.Formula = "=Rand()"
        namedRange1.PrintOut(1, 1, 1, True, , , False, )
    End Sub

private void PrintOutPreviewRange()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange namedRange1 =
        this.Controls.AddNamedRange(this.Range["A1", "E5"],
        "namedRange1");

    namedRange1.Formula = "=Rand()";
    namedRange1.PrintOut(1, 1, 1, true,
        false);
}
