Getting Data from an Excel Spreadsheet into a Signal
I have a strategy signal that requires fixed data (both strings and numbers) from an excel sheet. How can I automatically call up the information in these cells to my signal for calculations? The list is about 70 symbols long and compares the "getsymbolname" command to the returned name from the spreadsheet to determine if the correct row is being used to return other values.

Error
Well I was able to get ELXL to compile into my signal but now I get an error that crashes MC whenever I try to use the signal. A previous version without ELXL worked fine. Attached is the error msg.
