Open an existing workbook file

Within a Workbook file, referenced links may be different than the instance of Excel you are currently using if:

• The file you are opening was saved using a previous version of the AVEVA Historian Client Workbook.

• The file you are opening was saved using a different computer.

The AVEVA Historian Client Workbook add-in automatically updates only the AVEVA Historian Client Workbook reference within the file to use the current add-in location.

If Microsoft Excel detects that links need updating, a message box appears.

From this dialog box, you can choose to update the links or keep them the same.

To open an existing Workbook file

1. In Excel, from the File menu, click Open.

2. Select the name of the file to open and click Open.
