Since R2 2020 you can set the Name as well.| -|**UserInterfaceName**|Provides name used by the UI when referencing the field. Usually shown in a tooltip when hovering the field representation on the page. Also shown in error messages related to field error calculations.| -|**MappingName**|Name used when exporting the field data from the document.| -|**IsReadOnly**|Boolean value indicating whether the field should be threated as read-only in a PDF viewer UI.| -|**IsRequired**|Boolean value indicating whether the field is required for submitting the interactive form data.| -|**ShouldBeSkipped**|Boolean value indicating whether the field should be skipped when submitting the form.| -|**TextProperties**|Represents a VariableTextProperties instance used when creating Widget for visualizing the concrete field.

These properties dynamically construct the Widget appearance when it contains text content. | ## FormField Types -Each field type can be recognized from the FormField base class by getting the value from its **FieldType** property. This way you can convert the field to its inheritor type by doing a cast to some of the FormField class inheritors. +You can recognize each field type from the `FormField` base class by getting the value from its `FieldType` property.

This relation also determines the behavior of the reference when the formula that contains it is copied. ### Absolute References -Absolute references require a dollar sign ($) to be placed before the column letter and row number, e.g. *$A$1, $BC$100, $D:$D, $4:$6*. References of this type are bound to the range they reference. When you copy the formula that holds the reference and paste it to another location, the reference still points to the same range. Also, if the formula is a subject to auto fill, the newly produced formulas contain references to one and the same range. - +Absolute references require a dollar sign ($) before the column letter and row number (for example, *$A$1, $BC$100, $D:$D, $4:$6*).

The string value of D10 is exactly the same as in B2: =$A$1*12. ### Relative References -Unlike absolute references, relative references are based on their position relative to the range holding the reference. The relative reference is specified through the horizontal and vertical offset between the referenced range and the range that contains the reference using the latter as a starting point. Thus, when a formula holding relative reference is copied and pasted, the newly created formula points to a range with same horizontal and vertical offset as specified in the original expression. - +Unlike absolute references, relative references are based on their position relative to the range that holds the reference.

Also, if you apply an auto fill to the range C2:C5, starting from C2, the values of C3, C4 and C5 will be =A2, =A3, and =A4, respectively. - +For example, if cell C2 contains the value =A1 and you copy cell C2 and paste it in cell E4, the new value points to a cell that is one row above and two columns to the left.

For example, if B2 has the value =A1 and we paste its value in cell A2, the new expression will try to find a cell that is one row above and one column to the left of A2. Since such a cell does not exist, the value of A2 is changed to reference error (__#REF!__).

For example, if B2 has the value =A1 and you paste its value in cell A2, the new expression tries to find a cell that is one row above and one column to the left of A2. Because such a cell does not exist, the value of A2 changes to a reference error (`#REF!`). This error indicates that the cell reference is not correct. ### Mixed References -A mixed reference specifies its row as absolute and its column as relative or vice versa. Upon copy/paste mixed range references keep their absolute part unchanged and translate only the relative part. For instance, if B1 contains the value =SUM(A$1:A1) and we paste the value in the range B1:B5, each of the newly produced values will hold the sum of all cells in the column A between A1 and the current row. Note that if you move the contents of B1 to a cell in another column, say E2, the new value will translate the columns of both references =SUM(D$1:D2). - +A mixed reference specifies its row as absolute and its column as relative or vice versa.

If you move the contents of B1 to a cell in another column (for example, E2), the new value translates the columns of both references: =SUM(D$1:D2). + ### References to Whole Rows or Columns -SpreadProcessing supports references to whole columns and whole rows. You can use this functionality to include all the values from a row/column to a formula. The row and column references: -- are entered like other ranges, with a colon separating the starting point from the ending point; -- can refer to a single or to multiple rows/columns. Note that even for single row or column, the reference should be defined similarly to how you define ranges, e.g. you should use A:A to refer to column A. -- can also be absolute, relative or mixed references. +SpreadProcessing supports references to whole columns and whole rows.

Then you can append the new content to the already existing document. +The `CreateWorkbookExporter` method creates a new workbook which overrides the content of the document contained in the stream if it is not empty. You can change that by using the second overload of the `CreateWorkbookExporter` method and pass the export mode explicitly. Pass the export mode through the last parameter of the method (`exportMode`) which is of type `SpreadExportMode`. `SpreadExportMode` is an enum that exposes two constants—`Create` and `Append`. The default export mode is `Create`, which overrides the stream content. If you set the export mode to `Append`, an existing workbook from the stream opens if there is any content in it.

The key for the memory efficiency is that the spread streaming library writes the spreadsheet content directly to a stream without creating and preserving the spreadsheet document model in memory.
