Hi List, I have a few excel spreadsheets set up to look at live I/A data. Currently I first open up the datalink *.vew file then the excel spreadsheet. Is there a way to have datalink *.vew file automatically open and run in the bacground whenever I open the excel spreadsheet? Thanks. G. Bruce Moss Shell Global Solutions (US) Inc.
