XmlMappedRange.ReadingOrder Property

Definition

Gets or sets the reading order for the XmlMappedRange control.

public:
 property int ReadingOrder { int get(); void set(int value); };
public int ReadingOrder { get; set; }
member this.ReadingOrder : int with get, set
Public Property ReadingOrder As Integer

Property Value

One of the following values: xlRTL (right-to-left), xlLTR (left-to-right), or xlContext.

Examples

The following code example uses the ReadingOrder property to reverse the reading order of an XmlMappedRange, if the current language that is selected or installed supports it. This code example assumes that the current worksheet contains an XmlMappedRange named CustomerLastNameCell.

private void ReverseReadingOrder()
{
    if (this.CustomerLastNameCell.ReadingOrder == 
        (int)Excel.Constants.xlRTL)
    {
        this.CustomerLastNameCell.ReadingOrder = 
            (int)Excel.Constants.xlLTR;
    }
    else
    {
        this.CustomerLastNameCell.ReadingOrder = 
            (int)Excel.Constants.xlRTL;
    }
}
Private Sub ReverseReadingOrder()
    If Me.CustomerLastNameCell.ReadingOrder = Excel.Constants.xlRTL Then
        Me.CustomerLastNameCell.ReadingOrder = Excel.Constants.xlLTR
    Else
        Me.CustomerLastNameCell.ReadingOrder = Excel.Constants.xlRTL
    End If
End Sub

Remarks

Some of these constants may not be available to you, depending on the language support (U.S. English, for example) that you have selected or installed.
