ReadObjects Property

Gets or sets the property which specifies whether charts, pictures and drawing objects should be read when reading a workbook.

[Visual Basic]
Overridable Property ReadObjects As Boolean

[C#]
virtual bool ReadObjects {get; set;}

[C++]
__property virtual bool get_ReadObjects();
__property virtual void set_ReadObjects( 
   bool value
);

[C++/CLI]
virtual property bool ReadObjects {
   bool get();
   void set (bool value);
}

Remarks

Charts, pictures and drawing objects are read and written by default. Set this property to false to disable reading of charts, pictures and drawing objects when a workbook is read.

Note that setting ReadDrawingObjects to false will not disable reading of chart sheets.
