title: Range.SpecialCells: What does xlCellTypeBlanks actually represent?
body: <p>The <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vba/excel-vba/articles/range-specialcells-method-excel" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Range.SpecialCells method</a> can be used to return a Range object meeting certain criteria. The type of criteria is specified using an xlCellType constant.</p>
  
  <p>One of those constants (xlCellTypeBlanks) is described as referring to "Empty cells" with <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vba/excel-vba/articles/xlcelltype-enumeration-excel" rel="nofollow noreferrer">no further elaboration</a>.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know what definition of "Empty" this method uses? Does it include cells with no values/formulas but various other features (data validation, normal formatting, conditional formatting, etc)?</p>
