ControlNameAlreadyExistsException

A control with the same name is already in the ControlCollection instance.

InvalidRangeException

The range that was specified is not valid. Multi-area ranges cannot be used. The range should be on the same worksheet as the ControlCollection instance.

The AddLabel method enables you to add Label objects to the end of the ControlCollection. To remove a Label that was previously added programmatically, use the Remove method.

The control automatically resizes when the range is resized.

Examples

The following code example adds a Label control to cell A1, and then changes the text to First Name.

Private Sub ExcelRangeAddLabel()

    Dim Label1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel. _
        Controls.Label = Me.Controls.AddLabel( _
        Me.Range("A1"), "Label1")
    Label1.Text = "First Name" 

End Sub
private void ExcelRangeAddLabel()
{

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Controls.Label
        label1 = this.Controls.AddLabel(
        this.Range["A1", missing], "label1");
    label1.Text = "First Name";
}
