Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the SetDataBinding method to bind a ListObject to a DataTable. The DataTable contains two columns, which contain the names and ages of employees, and four rows that represent employee entries.

This example is for a document-level customization.

Private Sub ListObject_SetDataBinding()
        Dim Ages As Integer() = {32, 44, 28, 61}
        Dim Names As String() = {"Reggie", "Sally", _
            "Henry", "Christine"}

        ' Create a data table with two columns. 
        Dim table = New DataTable()
        Dim column1 As New DataColumn("Names", GetType(String))
        Dim column2 As New DataColumn("Ages", GetType(Integer))
        table.Columns.Add(column1)
        table.Columns.Add(column2)

        ' Add the four rows of data to the table. 
        Dim row As DataRow
        Dim i As Integer 
        For i = 0 To 3
            row = table.NewRow()
            row("Names") = Names(i)
            row("Ages") = Ages(i)
            table.Rows.Add(row)
        Next i

        Dim List1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ListObject = _
            Me.Controls.AddListObject(Me.Range("A1", "B4"), "List1")

        ' Bind the list object to the table.
        List1.SetDataBinding(table)

    End Sub
private void ListObject_SetDataBinding()
{
    int[] Ages = { 32, 44, 28, 61 };
    string[] Names = { "Reggie", "Sally", "Henry", "Christine" };

    // Create a data table with two columns.
    System.Data.DataTable table = new DataTable();
    DataColumn column1 = new DataColumn("Names", typeof(string));
    DataColumn column2 = new DataColumn("Ages", typeof(int));
    table.Columns.Add(column1);
    table.Columns.Add(column2);

    // Add the four rows of data to the table.
    DataRow row;
    for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
    {
        row = table.NewRow();
        row["Names"] = Names[i];
        row["Ages"] = Ages[i];
        table.Rows.Add(row);
    }

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ListObject list1 =
        this.Controls.AddListObject(this.Range["A1", "B4"], "list1");

    // Bind the list object to the table.
    list1.SetDataBinding(table);
}
