 OpenLinkedModel() As ModelImpl opens a mph model file from the model link in the active workbook and returns the Model object. The model link is updated when the model is opened.

 OpenLinkedModel(pwd As String) As ModelImpl opens the password protected mph model file from the model link in the active workbook and returns the Model object. The model link is updated when the model is opened.

If the model MPH file is not found at the location specified in the cell comment, OpenLinkedModel searches in the same folder where the workbook is saved.

 OpenModel(filename As String) As ModelImpl opens the model MPH file filename and returns the Model object.

 OpenModel(filename As String, pwd As String) As ModelImpl opens the password protected model MPH file filename and returns the Model object.

In case of the filename does not include the full path, the method OpenModel search for the model MPH file in the following directories:

 Parameters() imports all parameters from the model to a linked field with upper-left corner at the currently active cell.

 Parameters(pGroupTag As String) imports parameters in the model in the parameter node group to linked field with upper-left corner at the currently active cell.

 Parameters(pGroupTag As String, paramCaseTag As String) imports parameters in the model in the parameter node group and case to linked field with upper-left corner at the currently active cell.

 ReadModelLink() As String returns the model file path found in the model link in the currently active worksheet.

 ResultsDerivedValue(dtag As String) evaluates the derived values defined with the tag dtag and returns the data at the currently selected cell.

 ResultsInterpolation(dset As String, expr As String, coord As String) evaluates an expression at an arbitrary location. Insert the linked field at the current cell.

 ResultsInterpolation(dset As String, expr As String, coord As String, header As Boolean) evaluates an expression at an arbitrary location and specify whether to include the header or not. When the boolean header is set to False the header is not included. Default value for header is True.

 void ResultsInterpolation(dset As String, expr As String, coord As String, header As Boolean, coord As String, pName As String, pValue As String) evaluates expression at arbitrary location. pName, a string to define the solution parameters name and pValue, its values to use for the evaluation.
