With Excel, you often can't be sure how will it interpret a text in the cell. I've seen unexpected things when accessing .value via COM - for instance, strings like "3-4" or "4/5" may be taken as dates, "75%" actually contains 0.75 (which is actually correct, but unexpected) etc. See my rant at It is not a formula, you moron.

I've come to trust cell(..).text more. At least I can interpret that closer to the semantics of the data, than Excel can.
