ExcelRW Formula Import

Do you plan to implement reading the results of formulas on a sheet when opening Excel Workbook? In the current implementation I did not find a way to read the results of formulas but just the formulas themselves.

Hi Milen, This has to be calculated by an external formula engine. ExcelRW will just read the contents of the file as is. Best regards, Daniel >Do you plan to implement reading the results of formulas on a sheet when opening Excel Workbook?

I am under the assumption that the Excel xls file cells contains the value or string of the last calculation. If so, it could indeed be handy to get that, especially if the formula that derived it is non-translatable (non-existent add-in, as of yet unsupported function, etc.). Consider it like a "Paste Special...Values only"

Hi Greg, You are correct in assuming that Excel stores calculated values of the last calculation. This will work if a file has been opened using MSExcel. We will be implementing this feature in the 2.1 release timeframe (Maybe even sooner). Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks. Best regards, Stephen. >I am under the assumption that the Excel xls file cells contains the value or string of the last calculation.
