Unable to follow links in Excel B4Xgoodies.xlsm

[Derek Johnson]

As from today I am unable to follow the links in the B4Xgoodies.xlsm spreadsheet of B4X libraries etc using my copy of Excel 2007.
There seems to be a general issue of linking directly into any article from an Excel Spreadsheet with a link such as this copied from the B4Xgoodies.xlsm spreadsheet.

This seems to be as a result of extra security checks. As I'm trying to create a method of updating my libraries automatically, this has brought a complete stop to the project.

Is this a permanent issue?

It should work most of the time. There is a dynamic protection layer running that in some cases blocks automated calls.

I guess that my testing must have hit a threshold on the level or speed of access to topics on the site. Hopefully the system hasn't taken a permanent dislike to my IP address!

Seems OK now.
