IXlTableColumnCollection Interface

A collection of columns in a table.

Namespace: DevExpress.Export.Xl

Assembly: DevExpress.Printing.v24.2.Core.dll

Declaration

C#

public interface IXlTableColumnCollection :
    IXlReadonlyCollection<IXlTableColumn>,
    IEnumerable<IXlTableColumn>,
    IEnumerable

VB.NET

Public Interface IXlTableColumnCollection
    Inherits IXlReadonlyCollection(Of IXlTableColumn),
             IEnumerable(Of IXlTableColumn),
             IEnumerable

Related API Members

The following members return IXlTableColumnCollection objects:

• IXlTable.Columns

Remarks

The IXlTableColumnCollection collection contains the IXlTableColumn objects and is populated automatically when you start generating a table by calling the IXlRow.BeginTable method.

To access a collection of table columns, use the IXlTable.Columns property. An individual table column represented by an IXlTableColumn object can be accessed by its name or zero-based index in the IXlTableColumnCollection collection.
