The ref element is a CT_Ref type element, as specified in section 2.6.146, that specifies a cell reference.

An application can adjust this cell reference when the worksheet layout changes, even when the containing ext element, as specified in [ISO/IEC29500-1:2016] section 18.2.7, is not recognized by the application. See [ISO/IEC29500-3:2015] section 10.1.2 for more information about how extension lists are used.

The following W3C XML Schema ([XMLSCHEMA1/2] section 2.1) fragment specifies the contents of this element.

 <xsd:element name="ref" type="CT_Ref"/>

See section 5.1 for the full W3C XML Schema ([XMLSCHEMA1/2] section 2.1).
