Overload List

Overload	Description
ClearRange(Int32,Int32,Int32,Int32,Boolean)	Removes all of the data, formatting, formulas, and notes from a range of cells on this sheet.
ClearRange(Int32,Int32,Int32,Int32,Boolean,ClipboardCopyOptions)	Removes all of the data, formatting, formulas, and notes from a range of cells on this sheet.

Remarks

If you set the dataOnly parameter to true, the method clears the formulas, the cell notes, and the text in the cells in that range; in other words, it clears all the information that is in the data model for those cells.

Example

This example removes all the data, formatting, formulas, and notes from a range of cells.

Random r = new Random();
int i, j;
DialogResult dlg;
for (i = 0; i <= 3; i++)
{
    for (j = 0; j <= 3; j++)
    {
        fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SetValue(i, j, r.Next() -100000);
    }
}
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SetFormula(5, 0, "Sum(A1, B2)");
fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SetNote(5, 3, fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells[2, 2].Text);
dlg = MessageBox.Show("Do you want to clear the range?", "ClearRange", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
if (dlg == DialogResult.Yes)
{
    fpSpread1.ActiveSheet.ClearRange(0, 0, 6, 6);
}

Visual Basic

Dim r As New Random()
Dim i, j As Integer
Dim dlg As DialogResult
For i = 0 To 3
    For j = 0 To 3
        FpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SetValue(i, j, r.Next - 100000.ToString())
    Next j
Next i
FpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SetFormula(5, 0, "Sum(A1, B2)")
FpSpread1.ActiveSheet.SetNote(5, 3, FpSpread1.ActiveSheet.Cells(2, 2).Text)
dlg = MessageBox.Show("Do you want to clear the range?", "ClearRange", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo)
If dlg = DialogResult.Yes Then
    FpSpread1.ActiveSheet.ClearRange(0, 0, 6, 6)
