XIRR range question

[Ron Rosenfeld]

However, note that v must actually contain a value. It is not sufficient to
merely declare the object type of v. For instance:

I agree that it is NOT sufficient to merely declare the object type. However,
I don't believe it is strictly true that the object must actually contain a
value. There are objects that do not even support the Value property.

Well, we can quibble over what I meant by the word "value". It certainly is
not limited to mean that there is a Value property per se in the object.

OK, I was using in that sense, since that is how I determine the Value of a VB
object. When you wrote that, my first attempt at verifying was to look for the
Value of a regular expression object. (e.g. re.value)

If you want to use it to mean something else, that's OK with me.

Thank you. I hope the next time that I mention the "value" of a Double
variable v, you do not chide me because v.Value does not work .

Of course not. But (more definitions now )) I don't think I would consider
a Double to be an Object, in the sense we've been discussing.

"Note TypeOf cannot be used with hard data types such as
Long, Integer, and so forth other than Object."
