Using external path with Spreadsheet

Guys,

I am trying to use the external path function to point to a Spreadsheet that I want to be able to change between loading ATVO and not have to go into ATVO Theme editor to make changes.

I believe Nick talked about using the property "external path" in the Spreadsheet in Theme Editor to do this. I have tried various paths and nothing works.

For instance if my .csv is in Folder "SS" path "C:\Users\hdarn\Desktop\ROUSH Performance ATVO Overlays\ATVO Theme\Content\123.csv" what goes into the external path so ATVO looks for and loads the correct file on load.

Thanks
Harold

I believe the external filepath should be the full path, not relative to the theme. It is this way because it is intended to be a file outside of the theme folder, not a file inside the theme. Although having the file inside the theme folder should still work if you specify the full path.

I think there is also logging that goes into the Event Log that tells you whether the external file was found or not.
