Get Cells Index

The default view of Excel is the A1 style reference; each column is defined as A, B, C…, and the cells are named A1, B2, C3…, and so on. You may want to know which row and column this cell is in.

Possible Usage Scenarios

When you only need to manipulate specific data on the worksheet by row and column indexes, you need to know the row and column indexes of that specific cell.
Aspose.Cells offers this feature to get row and column indexes by the name of the row, column, and cell.
Aspose.Cells provides the following properties and methods to help you achieve your goals.

• CellsHelper.CellNameToIndex
• CellsHelper.ColumnIndexToName
• CellsHelper.ColumnNameToIndex
• CellsHelper.RowIndexToName
• CellsHelper.RowNameToIndex

Note: The indexing is zero‑based in Aspose.Cells for .NET, but the row index in MS Excel is one‑based.
