Applies To
Range Object, Series Object.
Description
Returns or sets the formula for the object, using R1C1-style notation in the language of the macro. Read-write.
Remarks
If the cell contains a constant, this property returns the constant. If the cell is empty, it returns an empty string. If the cell contains a formula, it returns the formula as a string, in the same format as it would be displayed in the formula bar (including the equal sign).
If you set the value or formula of a cell to a date, Microsoft Excel checks to see if that cell is already formatted with one of the date or time number formats. If not, it changes the number format to the default short date number format.
If the range is a one- or two-dimensional range, you can set the formula to a Visual Basic array of the same dimensions. Similarly, you can put the formula into a Visual Basic array.
Setting the formula of a multi-cell range fills all cells in the range with the formula.
