WorksheetExtensions.HasVstoObject Method (_Worksheet, Factory)

Returns a value that indicates whether a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Worksheet host item has been created for the current Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet object in a document-level customization. Pass the Globals.Factory object in your project to the factory parameter.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Extensions
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v4.0.Utilities (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v4.0.Utilities.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<ExtensionAttribute> _
Public Shared Function HasVstoObject ( _
    worksheet As _Worksheet, _
    factory As Factory _
) As Boolean

public static bool HasVstoObject(
    this _Worksheet worksheet,
    Factory factory
)

Parameters

• worksheet
  Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Worksheet

  The native worksheet object to test. Do not supply this parameter yourself. When you call this method on an Excel worksheet, the runtime supplies this parameter.

• factory
  Type: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Factory

  An object that provides access to certain features in your document-level customization. Pass the Globals.Factory object to this parameter.

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Worksheet host item has been created for the current Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet object; otherwise, false.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type _Worksheet. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

In a document-level customization, this method returns true only if the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet object on which you call this method is the underlying object of a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Worksheet host item in the current customization. Otherwise, this method returns false.

This method is provided for backward compatibility with Office projects that you retarget from the .NET Framework 3.5 to the .NET Framework 4 or the .NET Framework 4.5. In new projects that target the .NET Framework 4 or the .NET Framework 4.5, you should call the HasVstoObject method that is provided by the Globals.Factory object in your project. For more information, see Programming Document-Level Customizations.

Note

The Worksheet parameter is of type Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Worksheet, which is the parent interface of Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet. Therefore, this method extends both types: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Worksheet and Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet. Typically, when you reference an Excel worksheet, you use a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet.

.NET Framework Security

• Full trust for the immediate caller. This member cannot be used by partially trusted code. For more information, see Using Libraries from Partially Trusted Code.
