Excel formula computing

Hi.

I’m writing a complex Excel file using Infragistics2.Documents.Excel.v11.1 build 11.1.20111.1003 onto a Windows 7 x64 system. Some cells have a formula and opening the saved worksheet with Excel 2010 all works fine. But if I try to read a formula cell value while I populating the sheet I got the following strange data:

From Visual Studio 2010 immediate windows: 

ws.Rows[row].Cells[column]

{Risparmi!$AC$538}

    AssociatedDataTable: null

    AssociatedMergedCellsRegion: null

    CellFormat: {Infragistics.Documents.Excel.WorksheetCellOwnedFormatProxy}

    ColumnIndex: 28

    Comment: null

    Formula: Formula: =R538C28/R531C28

    HasComment: false

    RowIndex: 537

    Value: {#NAME?}

    Worksheet: Worksheet: "Risparmi"

 

What’s mean #NAME? in the cell value property?

I’m reasonably sure that when I try to read this value all cells are populated and the formula should works.

 

Diego.

    This usually means the cell has a formula which is either using a named reference name which doesn't exist or a function which currently isn't supported by the Excel library. But I can see from the formula that it is actually referring to 2 cells in R1C1 form. Is the workbook in the R1C1 reference mode?
