In Excel Link, why do I receive the error: Sub or Function Not Defined ?

In Excel Link, I receive the following error:

ERROR: Sub or Function Not Defined

Excel Link does not recognize the MLPutMatrix command inside the macro. The same command works fine if I enter it inside the Worksheet.

The reason that you are receiving this error is that you must configure Excel to reference these functions within a macro. Follow these instructions to configure Excel properly:

1. If it is not already opened, open the Visual Basic Editor in Microsoft Excel (Alt+F11).

2. Pull down the Insert menu, select Macro and select Module.

3. When the Module page opens, pull down the Tools menu and select References...

4. In the References window, check the box for EXCLLINK.XLA and click OK. You may have to use "Browse..." to find the EXCLLINK.XLA file.
