Maybe this is obvious to many/most of you, but it took me a little while to figure it out, and I did NOT find any direct examples of this. So, thought I’d share with all . . .
MS Excel Applescript - How to Reference & Use the Active Cell
Note that one key requirement is that the “Active Cell” can be referenced ONLY from the main Excel Application Object – NOT from “Active Workbook” or “Active Sheet”.
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
set oActiveCell to active cell -- Returns the currently selected cell
tell oActiveCell
set value to "TEST Using Tell Cell"
set oACFont to font object
tell oACFont
set bold to true
set font size to 18
end tell -- oACFont
end tell -- oActiveCell
end tell
