Remarks

The BeforeAddDataBoundRow event occurs before a new row is added to a data source that is bound to a ListObject.

Examples

The following code example creates a DataTable and a ListObject, and binds the ListObject to the DataTable. It then creates a BeforeAddDataBoundRow event handler that cancels the addition of the new row. To test the event, manually add a new row to the ListObject on sheet 1.

This example is for a document-level customization.

WithEvents BeforeAddDataBoundRowList As _

Private Sub ListObject_BeforeAddDataBoundRow()
    ' Create a new DataSet and DataTable. 
    Dim ds As New DataSet()
    Dim dt As DataTable = ds.Tables.Add("Customers")
    dt.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("LastName"))
    dt.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("FirstName"))

    ' Add a new row to the DataTable. 
    Dim dr As DataRow = dt.NewRow()
    dr("LastName") = "Chan"
    dr("FirstName") = "Gareth"
    dt.Rows.Add(dr)

    ' Create a list object.
    BeforeAddDataBoundRowList = _
        Me.Controls.AddListObject(Me.Range("A1"), _
        "BeforeAddDataBoundRowList")

    ' Bind the list object to the DataTable.
