Using FastExcel Functions and run-time support
If you create a workbook which uses one or more of the FastExcel
version 2 functions, or one of the new FastExcel calculation modes
such as Active Workbook mode or MixedMode sheets, your workbook will
not function correctly unless FastExcel is installed for the version
of Excel you are using.
If you copy or move one of these workbooks to a different machine
or to a system that has FastExcel installed in a different location
you may need to tell the workbook where the new/changed installation
of FastExcel V2 is located.
Use Edit-->Links-->Change Source and navigate to the location
where FastExcel Version 2 has been installed.
