External references in Design Tables?

    I know that dimensions are referenced by name at the top of the columns
    in a Design Table, but is it possible to use dimension names instead of
    numbers in the value cells?

    If so, is it possible to make external references in design table value
    cells? Eg: instead of, say, Cell value = "10" it could be
    "=D1@"?


    Thanks

  3. Do as Paul pointed out. If you try to put the config string in there
    (="D1@Extrude1@@") then Excel reads it as a literal text
    string. If you remove the quotes, it gets all confused.
