CellValue.DateTimeValue Property

Returns the date and time value that corresponds to the number contained in a cell.

Namespace: DevExpress.Spreadsheet

Assembly: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.v24.1.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.Core

Declaration

C#

public DateTime DateTimeValue { get; }

VB.NET

Public ReadOnly Property DateTimeValue As Date

Property Value

Type	Description
DateTime	A DateTime object.

Remarks

Dates and times are stored in cells as numbers that are displayed according to the applied date and time formats. So, if a cell contains a number, the DateTimeValue property returns the DateTime object which specifies a date and time value represented by that number. The number itself is accessed via the CellValue.NumericValue property. To check whether a cell displays its numeric value as date and time, use the CellValue.IsDateTime or CellValue.Type property. To get a string that specifies a cell value as it is displayed, use the Cell.DisplayText property.

For more information on cell values, refer to the Cell Data Types and Dates and Times in Cells documents.
