Hello,

I need to know if a cell contains a formula, a number, a date, a string, etc...
How can I get this information?

Thank you!

Hi,

Try this -

Code
Select All
var cell = activeSheet.Cells[0, 0];

if (cell.Value != null)
{
	Debug.WriteLine(cell.Value.GetType());
	// possible types: bool, double, string, DateTime, TimeSpan, object[]
}

if (cell.Data is string)
{
	var stringData = (string)cell.Data;
	bool isFormula = stringData.StartsWith("=") && stringData.Length > 1;
	if (isFormula)
		Debug.WriteLine("value is calculated");
}


Regards,
