This record represents a cell that contains an unsigned 16-bit integer value. If a value cannot be stored as a 16-bit
integer, a NUMBER record (➜5.71) must be written. From BIFF3 on this record is replaced by the RK record (➜5.87).
Record INTEGER, BIFF2:
Offset Size Contents
0 2 Index to row
2 2 Index to column

0044 H — — — —
This record occurs in front of every cell record (for instance BLANK, INTEGER, NUMBER, LABEL, FORMULA) that
references to an XF record (➜5.115) with an index greater than 62. The XF index field of the cell record consists only of
6 bits. The maximum value 63 is used to indicate a preceding IXFE record containing the real XF index. See ➜2.5.13 for
more details.
