Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange compositeRange;
private void DisplayRangeComposition()
{
    compositeRange = this.Controls.AddNamedRange(
        this.Range["B2", "E5"], "compositeRange");
    compositeRange.Cells.Interior.Color = 0xFF00;
    MessageBox.Show("The range has " + compositeRange.Count + 
        " cells.");
    MessageBox.Show("The range has " + 
        compositeRange.Columns.Count + " columns.");
    MessageBox.Show("The range has " + 
        compositeRange.Rows.Count + " rows.");
}
Private compositeRange As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange

Private Sub DisplayRangeComposition()
    compositeRange = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange( _
        Me.Range("B2", "E5"), "compositeRange")
    compositeRange.Cells.Interior.Color = &HFF00
    MessageBox.Show("The range has " & _
        compositeRange.Count & " cells.")
    MessageBox.Show("The range has " & _
        compositeRange.Columns.Count & " columns.")
    MessageBox.Show("The range has " & _
