<Extension()>
Public Function AddLabel (controls As ControlCollection, range As Range, name As String) As Label

Parameters

controls

ControlCollection

The collection to add the control to. Do not supply this parameter yourself. When you call this method on the collection returned by the Controls property (in an application-level project) or the Controls property (in a document-level project), this parameter is supplied automatically.

range

Range

A Range that provides the bounds for the control.

name

String

The name of the control that can be used to index the control in the ControlCollection instance.

Returns

Label

The Label control that was added to the ControlCollection instance.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullException

The name or range argument is null, or the name argument has zero length.

ControlNameAlreadyExistsException

A control with the same name is already in the ControlCollection instance.

InvalidRangeException

The range that was specified is not valid. Multi-area ranges cannot be used. The range should be on the same worksheet as the ControlCollection instance.

Examples

The following code example adds a Label control to cell A1, and then changes the text to First Name. To use this example, run it from the Sheet1 class in a document-level project.

private void ExcelRangeAddLabel()
{

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.Label
        label1 = this.Controls.AddLabel(
        this.Range["A1"], "label1");
    label1.Text = "First Name";
}

Private Sub ExcelRangeAddLabel()

    Dim Label1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel. _
        Controls.Label = Me.Controls.AddLabel( _
        Me.Range("A1"), "Label1")
    Label1.Text = "First Name"

End Sub

Remarks

The AddLabel method enables you to add Label objects to the end of the ControlCollection. To remove a Label that was previously added programmatically, use the Remove method.

The control automatically resizes when the range is resized.
