Remarks

If this cell belongs to a merged cell region and it is the top-left cell of the region, getting and setting the value will get and set the value of the associated merged cell region. Getting the value of other cells in a merged cell region will always return null. Setting the value of other cells in a merged cell region will have no effect.

If a formula has been applied to the cell or a data table is associated with the cell, getting the Value will return the calculated value of the cell.

  • System.Byte
  • System.SByte
  • System.Int16
