| Error: Invalid cell name error when using Excel "A1", "B1" style cell references |
| Problem |
When using ExcelWriter Desktop v2.03 on Windows 95, you may see the following error:
Invalid cell name. Cell name should look like [A]A[####]#, where A
is a letter for a column, and # is a one-based number for a row
This will occur if you reference cells using Excel-style addressing such as:
Cells("A1")
Cells("B2")
But, it will not occur if you reference cells using their ordinal numbers:
Cells(1,1)
Cells(2,2)
This error occurs only with ExcelWriter Desktop Edition. This error has not been observed on ExcelWriter Server editions. |
| Solution |
| This is a known issue in ExcelWriter Desktop v2.03 on Windows 95.
To prevent this error, reference cells using their ordinal numbers instead of Excel-style addressing.
