IRasterProps.NoData doesn´t work whit Iraster2.GetPixelValue. Why?

Question

Hi i have code loke belov. I set NoData value to my pRaster (IRaster2) as value - 9999. but when i use GetPixelValue(0, x, y) at pixel location whit NoData i have value = 0.  do anybody know where is mistake? Or how to set my NoData Value correctly ?

dim pRaster as IRaster2
.
.
pRasPropsIn = CType(pRaster, IRasterProps)
pRasPropsIn.NoDataValue = -9999 'urcovanie hodnoty no data
.
.
dim pValue as Single
pValue = pRaster.GetPixelValue(0, x, y)

here is pValue = 0 not -9999 !!!!!!

Thanks for reply, but i just need to check value at one point (x,y) and save whole raster is not a good idea, i think. What i need is know if the value is NoData or 0.

Having set the NoData value have you tried to save the raster first using ISaveAs to commit the change?  The help file saysThese modifications only affect the in-memory raster representation and in no way change any of the raster dataset. You can persist the modifications to a new raster datast using ISaveAs::SaveAs or IRasterBandCollection::SaveAs.
