Remarks

To set the color of a downward diagonal border that extends from the top-left to the bottom-right corner of a cell, use the XlBorder.DiagonalColor property. If you specify the DiagonalDownLineStyle for a border without setting it’s color, the automatic color will be used.

You can also use the XlBordersBase.DiagonalLineStyle property to specify the line style for downward and upward diagonal borders. In this case, you should set the XlBordersBase.DiagonalDown or XlBordersBase.DiagonalUp property to true to display the corresponding border in a cell.

The DiagonalDownLineStyle property automatically assigns the selected line style to the XlBordersBase.DiagonalLineStyle property and sets the XlBordersBase.DiagonalDown property to true. Note that the line style for upward and downward diagonal borders should be the same. So if you try to specify a different line style for the upward diagonal border using the XlBordersBase.DiagonalUpLineStyle property, the last specified border line style will be applied to both upward and downward diagonal borders of a cell.

To specify any other cell borders (e.g., top, bottom, left, right and outside borders), use the corresponding properties and methods of the XlBorder object. For more information on how to set cell borders, refer to the How to: Add Cell Borders example.
