Public Overloads Function ToString( _ ByVal relativeTo As Cell, _ ByVal referenceStyle As ReferenceStyle _ ) As String | |
| Visual Basic (Usage) |  Copy Code |
|---|---|
Dim instance As Cell Dim relativeTo As Cell Dim referenceStyle As ReferenceStyle Dim value As String value = instance.ToString(relativeTo, referenceStyle) | |
| C# | |
|---|---|
public string ToString( Cell relativeTo, ReferenceStyle referenceStyle ) | |
Parameters
- relativeTo
- Cell to use for computing the relative reference
- referenceStyle
- Style of cell reference
Return Value
String containing a relative reference to this cell in the specified reference styleExceptions
| Exception | Description |
|---|---|
| System.ArgumentNullException | No cell specified or specified cell (for relative reference) is not valid |
Remarks
Use this method to return the relative reference for another cell to this cell. Specify the cell for which you want the reference using the relativeTo parameter.
For example, if you want to refer to cell C1 relative to C3, call this method for cell C1, specifying cell C3 for the relativeTo parameter. The result is C1, C1, and R[-2]C, for the Default, A1, and R1C1 cell reference styles, respectively.
Header cells always return String.Empty because they cannot be referenced.
Example
This example creates a Cell object and uses its formula property to sum the values of two cells.
