Question

In VB.NET, using Interop.Excel, I need to access a cell based on a row number and column letter. I tried my luck with…

pages.title = DirectCast(wksht.Cells(rows, "D"), Excel.Range).Value

Since the parameters took type object, I figured maybe this would work, but got no luck. I also thought of enumerating each letter to a number, but the columns in the spreadsheet aren’t as normal. Meaning, they’re not

A B C D E F G

They’re actually…

A B C D E T AZ

I don’t know if this makes a difference in the numbering of the columns. The question should be obvious, but just to reiterate, how can I get a cell based on a row number and column letter?

Answer 1

For a single cell:

wksht.Range(colLetter + rows)
