How to Use MathCAD Spreadsheet within Excel

Hi,

I have a MathCAD spreadsheet that I would like to use in Excel.

What I want it to do, quite simply, is this:

In Excel, I have about 10 inputs. I want to take these inputs, and put them into variables in MathCAD.

The MathCAD sheet will then do its calculation and return 1 variable.

I will take that 1 variable, and put it back into Excel.

How do I get Excel to do this?

Thanks

No, 15 is a good answer. Prime (as far as I know) can't interface properly yet. even then the SDK might be expensive...

first point of reference is the help files, its not easy to find but may answer your immediate need:

I have tried various versions but will need to track them down in my archive.

What version of Mathcad are you using?

Prime or original Mathcad

Right now I'm using 15, but I could convert this spreadsheet to prime fairly easily if need be.
