[TRNSYS-users] Type 62 Excel - Initial Procedure in VBA

[David Bradley]

Carsten,
  I am not sure that Type62 is going to be much help. I wonder if you 
could write an Excel macro that saves your results in a tab delimited 
text file which could be read by Type9. Of course Type9 will read the 
file every time step but the data read doesn't take much time. If you 
need the results of your Excel sheet as parameters to other TRNSYS 
components in your simulation, then you can look at using Type70, which 
reads a text file of parameter values, then replaced those values that 
are already set in the proformas.
Kind regards,
 David
