Public ReadOnly Property DirectPrecedents As Range

Property Value

Range

A Range that represents the range containing all the direct precedents of an XmlMappedRange control.

Examples

The following code example sets a reference in cell A2 to refer to cell A1, and then sets a reference in an XmlMappedRange to refer to cell A2. The code example then uses the DirectPrecedents property to select the direct precedent of the XmlMappedRange, which is cell A2. This code example assumes that the current worksheet contains an XmlMappedRange named CustomerAddress1Cell with a corresponding schema element of type int.

private void SelectDirectPrecedents()
{
    this.Range["A1"].Value2 = 1710;
    this.Range["A2"].Value2 = "=A1";

    this.CustomerAddress1Cell.Value2 = "=A2";
    this.CustomerAddress1Cell.DirectPrecedents.Select();
}

Private Sub SelectDirectPrecedents()
    Me.Range("A1").Value2 = 1710
    Me.Range("A2").Value2 = "=A1"

    Me.CustomerAddress1Cell.Value2 = "=A2"
    Me.CustomerAddress1Cell.DirectPrecedents.Select()
End Sub

Remarks

This property only works on the active sheet and cannot trace remote references.
