Hi Nadee,

You can use com.sun.star.sheet.XCellRangeAddressable interface and
CellRangeAddress.

com.sun.star.sheet.XCellRangeAddressable xRangeAddr =
(com.sun.star.sheet.XCellRangeAddressable)
UnoRuntime.queryInterface(com.sun.star.sheet.XCellRangeAddressable.class,
xCellRange);

CellRangeAddress aRangeAddress = xRangeAddr.getRangeAddress();

>From aRangeAddress you can get details about range start column,start row
 and range end column,end row. Then you can get the no of columns and rows
you have in the range

int noOfColums = aRangeAddress.EndColumn - aRangeAddress.StartColumn + 1;
int noOfRows = aRangeAddress.EndRow - aRangeAddress.StartRow + 1;

Then traverse through the range using this and you can get all the cells
inside the given range.

for (int i = 0; i < noOfColums; i++) {

            for (int j = 0; j < noOfRows; j++) {

                    XCell cell = xCellRange.getCellByPosition(i, j);

            }

Hope this might help you
