Hi Bert, My_R as well as Rconnected is a variable defined in the Rinterface module of Rexcel.xla. When you open the VBA editor in excel, then you will see that there is a VBA project called RexcelVBAlib, provided that the Rexcel addin is installed. To reference this variables you need to add a reference to your project to RexcelVBAlib. You can do it from the menu of VBA editor: Tools->References.
