TXlsFile.GetStringFromCell Method
This method will return a rich string that is formatted similar to the way Excel shows it. For example, if you have "1.0" on a cell, and the cell is formatted as exponential, this method will return "1.0e+1" It might also change the color depending on the value and format. (for example, red for negative numbers) Conditional formats are not applied, you need to call TExcelFile.ConditionallyModifyFormat(TFlxFormat, Integer, Integer, Boolean, IDrawingConditionalFormat) to the cell style for that.
