Good day,

I am currently trying to get custom properties to read back to cells in the given spreadsheet.

The scenario is as follows:
I am using Autodesk Vault for document and data management.
I have created a user-defined property in Vault, for my Excel documents.
This property will be updated in Vault and needs to populate into the Excel spreadsheet.
This information needs to reflect in the document properties and must be readable in a given cell.
If I use a Defined Name range, and choose to link to Content, the property updates only if I enter a value in the cell.
I need the cell reference to update and show the newly inherited property, which has been mapped to the Vault property.

I also need all of this done without macros or VB scripts.
