CXlOper::Excel

Invoke the Excel SDK

[C++]
int cdecl Excel(
   int xlfn,
   int count,
    ...
);

Parameters

xlfn: The Excel built-in function number. See Excel built-in function numbers for a list of values.
count: The number of XLOPER pointer arguments being passed to Excel.
...: The remaining count arguments to the function should be pointers to XLOPER. References to the CXlOper class will automatically be cast to XLOPER*.

Return value

The result of the SDK call-back. xlretSuccess (0) indicates success. Other values indicate failure. A full list of return values can be found under Error Values.

Remarks

This function can be used to call an Excel built-in function via the Microsoft Excel SDK. Details of SDK calls and their arguments can be found in the Microsoft Excel 4 Function Reference.

The result of the call will be put in the object which made it. The CXlOper will be marked for special memory clean-up, since the data returned is owned by Excel. If you have no interest in the value returned by Excel, use CXllApp::Excel() instead.

CXlFuncs & CXlMacros

Most Excel worksheet and macro functions can be found, as ready-wrapped C++ methods, in the CXlFuncs and CXlMacros classes respectively.
