A preprocessor that consolidates all the worksheets into a single large WorkSheet in a separate .xls file 2. "Dynamically" creating a .bds file and changing the "worksheet= " inside the newly created file to reference the next needed Worksheet. Option #2 is the easier of the two. Got some stuff going on today - but could get an example of this posted to the website probably in a day or so? Regards, Thom Thom C.

Is there any way programmatic way to streamline the process? Can you either refer me to documentation or provide an example? Each worksheet is formatted the same way. Thanks.

You will need to configure separate .bds files for each worksheet and each d.open_ command must specify a .bds file A worksheet inside a workbook is from the DataStation's and a script's perspective a separate file.
