C#

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Overridable Function Merge( _
   ByVal o As Object _
) As Boolean

'Usage

public virtual bool Merge( 
   object o
)

Parameters

o: Object whose settings are merged with the current border

Remarks

If you want the option to force the settings to be merged, even if the setting is defined in the current object, use the Merge(Object,Boolean) Method.

Example

This example creates two Border objects and merges the first objects settings into the seconds and applies those settings to an instance of a Cell object.

FarPoint.Web.Spread.Borderborder=NewFarPoint.Web.Spread.Border(BorderStyle.Dotted,Color.Red,2);
FarPoint.Web.Spread.Bordercloneborder=NewFarPoint.Web.Spread.Border();
FarPoint.Web.Spread.Cellacell;
acell=FpSpread1.Cells[0,0];
cloneborder.Merge(border);
acell.Border=cloneborder;
