(Minus) at the end = negative numbers are formatted in color Example: the number format #,#0.0 returns ,1 and the number format 00.000% returns P3 D1 = MMM-D-YY, MM-D-YY and similar formats In the above formats, the number of decimal places after the decimal separator is given as a number. S = exponential representation, for example 1.234+E56 P = percentage PROTECT CELL() returns the status of the cell protection for the cell.įORMAT CELL() returns text that indicates the number format: PREFIX CELL() returns text that indicates the alignment of the referenced cell, as: The unit is the number of zeros (0) that fit into the column in the default text and the default size.

Examples:ĬELL("COORD" Sheet3.D2) returns $C:$D$2.ĬONTENTS CELL() returns the contents of the referenced cell, without any formatting. Examples:ĬELL("FILENAME" D2) returns ' file:///X:/dr/myfile.ods'#$Sheet1, if the current document is X:\dr\myfile.ods and the formula is on Sheet1.ĬELL("FILENAME" 'X:\dr\myfile.ods'#$Sheet1.D2) returns ' file:///X:/dr/myfile.ods'#$Sheet1.ĬOORD CELL() returns the complete cell address in Lotus (TM) notation, as text. Examples:ĬELL("ADDRESS" Sheet3.D2) returns $Sheet3.$D$2.ĬELL("ADDRESS" 'X:\dr\test.ods'#$Sheet1.D2) returns ' file:///X:/dr/test.ods'#$Sheet1.$D$2.įILENAME CELL() returns the file name and the sheet number of the referenced cell, as text. Example:ĬELL("SHEET" Sheet3.D2) returns 3 assuming Sheet3 is the third sheet.ĪDDRESS CELL() returns the absolute address of the referenced cell, as text. SHEET CELL() returns the number of the referenced sheet. ROW CELL() returns the number of the referenced row. Example:ĬELL("COL" D2) returns 4, as D is the fourth column.
