Glossary Item Box

Gets or sets the minimum value allowed for user entry.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Property MinimumValue As Double
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As NumberCellType
Dim value As Double
 
instance.MinimumValue = value
 
value = instance.MinimumValue
C# 
public double MinimumValue {get; set;}

Property Value

Double-precision, floating-point number representing the minimum value allowed in the cell

Exceptions

ExceptionDescription
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException Specified value is beyond accepted limits

Remarks

The MinimumValue and MaximumValue properties limit the value that the user enters when editing the cell. It does not affect the data model and does not the limit the cell getting a value by other means, for example by means of a formula.

Use the MinimumValue and MaximumValue properties to place range restrictions on user entry. For example the following code limits user input to values between 0 and 100.

   NumberCellType nct = new NumberCellType();
nct.MinimumValue = 0.0;
nct.MaximumValue = 100.0;
spread.Sheets[0].Cells[0,0].CellType = nct;

Use the MIN and MAX functions to place range restrictions on formula calculations. For example, the following code limits the summation calculation to values between 0 and 100.

   spread.Sheets[0].Cells[4,0].Formula = "MAX(0, MIN(SUM(A1:A4), 100))";

Example

This example sets several properties of a numeric format cell.
C#Copy Code
FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.NumberCellType num = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.NumberCellType();
num.DecimalPlaces = 3;
num.DecimalSeparator = ",";
num.FixedPoint = true;
num.LeadingZero = FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.LeadingZero.UseRegional;
num.MaximumValue = 50000.0;
num.MinimumValue = -1000.0;
num.NegativeFormat = FarPoint.Win.Spread.CellType.NegativeFormat.Parentheses;
num.NegativeRed = true;
num.Separator = "/";
num.ShowSeparator = true;
num.SpinButton = true;
num.SpinDecimalIncrement = 10;
num.SpinIntegerIncrement = 5;
num.SpinWrap = true;
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells[0, 0].CellType = num;
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells[0, 0].Value = -443.0908;
