- Well, seems I got it to work after all...
- For all those people wondering how it is done... Well, simple really,
- when I got my brain working again... :)
-
- =LINKDISK("dh1:procalc/test.pro", A1) for example.
- I also found that I could put the filename in a cell, and then use that
- cell in the call.
-
- So, if you put DH1:procalc/test.pro in, say, cell A1,
- then the call can be made like this:
- =LINKDISK(A1,A5) which would import the value of A5 from the spreadsheet
- Dh1:Procalc/test.pro into your cell...

- Thanks for your concern and help!!!
