Can someone explain the meaning of the 4th argument of (vla-getcellextents)? I don't understand.

bOuterCell (Boolean )
  TRUE: The specified cell is an outer cell.
  FALSE: The specified cell is an inner cell.

Just a stab in the dark, as an easy conditional to determine if the cell is a border cell or interior cell. Potentially for borders?

Of course this was my first thought as well. But it doesn't make sense. The Boolean is an argument not a return value. And I already know from the column and row indices if a cell is a border cell or not.

I think the outer is the actual grid whereas inner is the extents taking the margin into consideration
