I have an Excel workbook that utilises a data table (A).

I now want to create another data table (B) that effectively sits on top of the other data table. That is, each “iteration” of B calls A.

This approach fails although I cannot find any documentation about data tables that indicates that this would not work.

Basically I’d like to know if anyone has tried this before and whether I am missing something?

Is there a workaround? Do you know of any documentation that spells out whether and why this is not supported?

    No.

    I tried this at length some years ago in both xl03 and xl07 and my conclusion was that it can’t be done – each data table seems to be an independent one-off run, they don’t talk if you try to link them

    I couldn’t find any documentation on this issues either on the process, or for anyone else looking at a similar problem.
