Hi All
I have a Vb6 app from which I am retreiving a value in a cell in a
worksheet in a workbook.

The code goes something like this:

SomeLabel.caption = MyCells(rownum,colnum).value

Looking directly at the cell in the workbook, I see a value of 3.

However when I debug.print or msgbox MyCells(rownum,colnum).value from
the vb6 app, I find that the value is actually more like 2.9999889889
or something similar.

Whether I format the cell in the workbook as a number to 0 decimal
places, or as General, makes no difference. I conclude from this that
the vb6 code is actuall retrieving the excel *stored* value rather than
the excel *presented* value. Is this correct? How do I retrieve the
value "3" rather than the entire floating point value? Or is the only
way to coerce the data type in the vb6 app using a ceiling like
function or declaring a variable as type integer and assigning it?

Any help appreciated.

Regards
Andrew
