Summary:

When performing multilevel external copies in which a worksheet is linked to a worksheet that, in turn, is linked to a third worksheet, Multiplan only pays attention to the sheet directly linked to the currently loaded spreadsheet.

For example, if information goes from sheet1 to sheet2, and the same data then goes from sheet2 to sheet3, only sheet2 is considered to be supporting sheet3.

There should be no problem in “chaining” the links in this fashion; however, be sure that the second sheet (sheet2) has been updated before loading the third sheet (sheet3).
