Creating a looping using the "Reference tool"

Why would you entertain such complexity when you can achieve the same result with a simple program?

You can do it, just not with the reference pointing to the master sheet.

Fred,

I appreciatte your help,

I think that I didn`t explained well what I`m trying to reach.

The worksheet that I posted is just an example, I know that I can define a simple function using the programming tools.

My problem is: not once but several times during my experience with Mathcad I had problems with big worksheets that I needed to evalueted more than 1000 times. And sometimes there are so many variables and functions that is not praticable to add one more variable. You can get this kind of problem working with simulations or optimizations.

So, I am looking for another ways to use mathcad and not need to reformulate all my equations to evaluate a worksheet 1000 times. Using the "reference tool" is a way I found to do this. As I said before, this is not the most smart way but is simple and fast. It is similar to use a worksheet as a function.

Look the worksheets example attached, I can evaluate the worksheet WB as many time as I want with out the need of changing it equations or using scripts, do you understand my point? Forget about the simple equation y = 3.x + 4 , think that it could be a much more complex worksheet.

Backing to the first post, what I was trying to improve here is not have to paste 300 references of worksheet WB. I was looking for a better way to have the same result creating a looping with the circular references, do you understand? So, do you know if there is a way to insert just one circular reference and make it loop as many time I want?

If you want you can see the other discussion we had about making loops using scripts ( http://communities.ptc.com/message/165341#165341 ) . The problem with using scripts is that they are very slow, so the "reference tool" became a considerable way.
