Main
Use the buttons in the Main group to open the model linked to the Excel workbook, open the current model in the COMSOL Desktop, and to break the link between cells and the model.
Open Linked
Click Open Linked () to open the model linked to the current Excel workbook. The path to the model is saved as a cell comment in one of the worksheets of the workbook. Note that a workbook can only be linked to one model at a time.
COMSOL Desktop
Click COMSOL Desktop () to open with the COMSOL Desktop the model that is currently active on the connected COMSOL Multiphysics server. This enables working with a model both from the Excel workbook and the COMSOL Desktop at the same time, and it is especially useful during the initial setup of worksheets that interface a model.
Break Link
Click Break Link () to remove the comment added by the LiveLink™ interface to link the selected cell range to a model. The data in the cells can no longer be updated after the link is removed.
If you remove the comment on a cell that contains a material name or property configured for material export, the material or property is not exported to the material library, and the settings are lost.
See BreakLink for information about the corresponding VBA command.
Click Break Link > Break All Links () to remove all comments that link cell ranges from the current worksheet to a model. Note that this action also removes the comment with the path to the linked model, if it is included on the worksheet.
See BreakAllLinks for information about the corresponding VBA command.
