Remarks

By default, the HideSelection property is false, and the SpreadsheetControl highlights the selected cells in a worksheet and changes the color of the affected row and column headers. To disable this behavior, set the HideSelection property to true. Note that in this case, end-users can determine the currently active cell using the Name Box control.
