Remarks

Provide data for this method using tab characters and carriage returns or line feeds to specify cells and rows. Use tab characters between cells, and carriage returns or line feeds between rows. For C#, use the \t sequence for tabs, and the \n or \r for line feeds or carraige returns. For VB.NET, use the Chr(9) function for tab characters, and the Chr(10) or Chr(13) function for linefeeds or carriage returns, or the VB constants, vbTab, vbLf, vbCr, or vbCrLf.

The data in the range of cells is parsed using the IFormatter in the composite style for the cell in the style model.

Besides using this method, you can get or set the data in a cell using various properties of the sheet (SheetView object) or properties of the cell (Cell object). For more information, see Handling Data Using Sheet Methods and Handling Data Using Cell Properties.

Remember that the data may be displayed differently in a cell depending on the cell type. For more information, see Understanding Cell Type Effects on Displaying Data.
