Reading formula calculated value from excel cell in c#

Question

I am using linqtoexcel for reading from a excel sheet. the problem i face is that i can't read the formula calculated value from a cell, instead i get the actual value of the cell. Is there any way to read the end value of the cell from the excel sheet using linqtoexcel or by some other means.

Answer 1

linqtoexcel uses OleDB to access the sheet's data, and since OleDB does not allow the formulas to be accessed, you can't read the formula from the excel cell. You can only view the value for the cell.
