It works. Thanks

It ended this way. Formatting was not needed. And also ses-write-cell
was needed.
      --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(ses-write-cells)
      ;;; '*1' formatting to vector also the range is the computation-result
      (let ((range  (ses-range N3 N6 *1)))
        (pop range) ; remove 'vec
        (setq mysesoutput (concat (number-to-string (nth 0 range)) "\n" 
(number-to-string (nth 1 range)) "\n" (number-to-string (nth 2 range)) "\n" 
(number-to-string (nth 3 range)))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

See above. ses-write-cells was also needed using that way.

would commit it.

It works as it was intended to be used.


I have another question. But I am going to change the subject on another email.
