Prevent iPart/iAssembly spreadsheets from closing other Excel workbooks

Prevent iPart/iAssembly spreadsheets from closing other Excel workbooks

Start editing an iPart or iAssembly table via spreadsheet.
Open another Excel workbook after the iPart/iAssembly document has been opened.
Close the iPart/iAssembly spreadsheet.
Edit the iPart/iAssembly table from Inventor.
Inventor shows a message that the Excel process will be terminated, which closes the other workbook.

 

If this is a limitation within Excel, then the prompt should at least show a list of workbook names that open in that specific Excel process (since any previously opened Excel files are unaffected), and give the user the option to cancel opening the iPart/iAssembly table.
