Converts a Microsoft Graph name to an object or a value.
expression.Evaluate(Name)
expression Required. An expression that returns a Microsoft Graph Application object.
Name Required String. The name of the specified object, using the Microsoft Graph naming convention.
Remarks
You can use the following types of names in Microsoft Graph with this method:
- A1-style references. You can use any reference to a single cell in A1-style notation. All references are considered to be absolute references.
- Ranges. You can use the range, intersect, and union operators (colon, space, and comma, respectively) with references.
- Defined names. You can specify any name in the language of the macro.
Note Using square brackets (for example, "[A1:C5]") is identical to calling the Evaluate method with a string argument. For example, the following expressions are equivalent:
myChart.Application.[a1].Value = 25
myChart.Application.Evaluate("A1").Value = 25
The advantage of using square brackets is that the code is shorter. The advantage of using Evaluate is that the argument is a string, so you can either construct the string in your code or use a Visual Basic variable.
Example
This example clears cell A1 on the datasheet.
clearCell = "A1"
myChart.Application.Evaluate(clearCell).Clear
