    Syntax

    Public Overloads Function ToString( _
       ByVal relativeTo As Cell, _
       ByVal referenceStyle As ReferenceStyle _
    ) As String
    'Usage
     
    
    Dim instance As Cell
    Dim relativeTo As Cell
    Dim referenceStyle As ReferenceStyle
    Dim value As String
     
    value = instance.ToString(relativeTo, referenceStyle)

    Parameters

    relativeTo
    Cell to use for computing the relative reference
    referenceStyle
    Style of cell reference

    Return Value

    String containing a relative reference to this cell in the specified reference style
    Exceptions
    ExceptionDescription
    No cell specified or specified cell (for relative reference) is not valid
    Remarks

    Use this method to return the relative reference for another cell to this cell. Specify the cell for which you want the reference using the relativeTo parameter.

    For example, if you want to refer to cell C1 relative to C3, call this method for cell C1, specifying cell C3 for the relativeTo parameter. The result is C1, C1, and R[-2]C, for the Default, A1, and R1C1 cell reference styles, respectively.

    Header cells always return String.Empty because they cannot be referenced.

    Example
    This example creates a Cell object and uses its formula property to sum the values of two cells.
