The Selection property specifies the selected cell range in the active worksheet (for instance, B3:F9 in the image below). The SelectedCell property specifies an active cell where data is inserted when a user types (E7 in the image below). Use the ActiveCell property to obtain this cell. Selection can be a cell or cell range, while SelectedCell is always a single cell within the current selection.
The following code specifies the cell selection and an active cell as shown in the image above.
| C# |
using DevExpress.Spreadsheet;
IWorkbook workbook = spreadsheetControl1.Document;
Worksheet activeSheet = workbook.Worksheets.ActiveWorksheet;
spreadsheetControl1.Selection = activeSheet.Range["B3:F9"];
spreadsheetControl1.SelectedCell = activeSheet.Cells["E7"];

| VB |
Imports DevExpress.Spreadsheet
Dim workbook As IWorkbook = spreadsheetControl1.Document
Dim activeSheet As Worksheet = workbook.Worksheets.ActiveWorksheet
spreadsheetControl1.Selection = activeSheet.Range("B3:F9")
spreadsheetControl1.SelectedCell = activeSheet.Cells("E7")
