How to obtain current selection using C++
In a prior thread, I learned that the parameters passed to Excel via C++ are
essentially the same as the EXCEL macro language. Wit this I've made great progress, but have run into a different problem. I have the following sequence of steps, all being calls to Excel4 : (xlcFormulaGoto,<xlResult,1, <celladdress); (xlcSelectSpecial,<xlResult,2,<currentregion,<al ltypes); (xlcSelection,<xlCurrRange,0); where the < bracketed items are XLOPERs. (current region has value 5 and alltypes value 23, as documented in the SelectSpecial macro function) I confirmed that the first two steps work by returning to EXCEL after them instead of continuing. But the call to xlcSelection to obtain a reference to the region selected by the SelectSpecial command is returning nonsense. The XLM docs indicate that SELECTION() (on a macro sheet) normally dereferences, so to get the actual reference you can use REFTEXT(). I can get everything to work using a macro sheet, but cannot figure out how to do it in C++ code. The content of the <xlCurrRange XLOPER is of type xltypeRef, but the reference itself is garbage. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. |
