Declaration
Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Range | A Range object specifying an active cell in a worksheet that is currently active. If you assign a cell located in a worksheet that is not active, the active cell will be specified in the active worksheet. |
Remarks
The SpreadsheetControl.ActiveCell property enables you to obtain an active cell, i.e., the cell that is in focus. It is the cell with which the user interacts.
The SelectedCell property returns the Range object that is the active cell of the current worksheet. However, unlike the SpreadsheetControl.ActiveCell property, it enables you to set the active cell by specifying the Range. The top left cell of the specified range becomes the selected cell.
The SpreadsheetControl.Selection property provides access to a cell range selected in the active worksheet. If there is more than one selected range in the worksheet, this property returns a complex (union) range that includes all the selected areas. You can access an individual range in the selection by its index in the Range.Areas collection.
