Can be one of the following XlSearchOrder constants: xlByRows or xlByColumns.

MatchCase
Object

true to make the search case sensitive.

MatchByte
Object

You can use this argument only if you have selected or installed double-byte language support in Excel. true to have double-byte characters match only double-byte characters; false to have double-byte characters match their single-byte equivalents.

Examples

The following code example sets the value of the cells in a NamedRange control to the string "This is a sentence.", and then uses the Replace method to replace the substring "a" with "my".

This example is for a document-level customization.

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

    namedRange1.Value2 = "This is a sentence.";
    namedRange1.Replace("a", "my", Excel.XlLookAt.xlPart,
        Excel.XlSearchOrder.xlByColumns, false);
}
Private Sub ReplaceValue()
    Dim namedRange1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange _
        = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("A1"), _
        "namedRange1")

    namedRange1.Value2 = "This is a sentence."
    namedRange1.Replace("a", "my", Excel.XlLookAt.xlPart, _
        Excel.XlSearchOrder.xlByColumns, False, , , )
End Sub

Remarks

Using this method does not change either the selection or the active cell.

The settings for LookAt, SearchOrder, MatchCase, and MatchByte are saved each time you use this method. If you do not specify values for these arguments the next time you call the method, the saved values are used. Setting these arguments changes the settings in the Find dialog box, and changing the settings in the Find dialog box changes the saved values that are used if you omit the arguments. To avoid problems, set these arguments explicitly each time you use this method.
