GPS Add-in file (GPS.XLA)
PT Function input parameters, pressure and temperature in this example
H Function output parameter, enthalpy in this example
(2400,A2) The function input parameters are either tag names, values, cell references, or a combination. In this example, the pressure value is passed along
  with the temperature value located in cell A2

Additionally, GPSteam Add-in for RTXHDB connects the Steam Table functions to the RTX Historical Database through the RTXHDB Applications - Expression and Functions facility, provided with the RTXHDB system. For example, in the DDE Server for RTXHDB, the list of functions will include those provided by GPSteam Add-in for RTXHDB.
