NamedRange.NumberFormat Property

Gets or sets the format code for the NamedRange control.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Property NumberFormat As Object
Object NumberFormat { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.Object
The format code for the NamedRange control.

Remarks

This property returns nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if all cells in the NamedRange control do not have the same number format.

The format code is the same string as the Format Codes option in the Format Cells dialog box. The Format function uses different format code strings than do the NumberFormat and NumberFormatLocal properties.

Examples

The following code example uses the NumberFormat property to format a date string in a NamedRange. The example also uses the NumberFormatLocal property to display the date format in the language of the user.

This example is for a document-level customization.

Private formatRange As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange

Private Sub ApplyNumberFormatting()
    formatRange = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange( _
        Me.Range("C1"), "formatRange")

    Me.formatRange.Value2 = "4-Apr-1974" 
    Me.formatRange.NumberFormat = "m/d/yyyy" 

    ' Display the number format in the language of the user.
    MessageBox.Show("The number format for the NamedRange is: " & _
        Me.formatRange.NumberFormatLocal.ToString())
End Sub
Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange formatRange;
private void ApplyNumberFormatting()
{
    formatRange = this.Controls.AddNamedRange(
         this.Range["C1"], "formatRange");

    this.formatRange.Value2 = "4-Apr-1974";
    this.formatRange.NumberFormat = "m/d/yyyy";

    // Display the number format in the language of the user.
    MessageBox.Show("The number format for the NamedRange is: " +
        this.formatRange.NumberFormatLocal.ToString());
}
