Regarding spreadsheets:

1) What performance (or any other) issues arise, if I use one spreadsheet file across multiple charts within one chart book (i.e. one chart book / 3 charts / each chart using the same spreadsheet filename)

2) What performance (or any other) issues arise, if I use one spreadsheet file across multiple chartbooks (i.e. two chart books / each chartbook has 3 charts / all chartbooks and charts using the same spreadsheet name)

I ask because I notice some of my spreadsheets automatically switch between symbols. Is this just the nature of the spreadsheet or does this create a performance issue? Moreover, if the spreadsheets do switch, is it possible that an alert on one symbol may inadvertently trigger on another symbol?

Bottom line: should each spreadsheet in each chart / chart book have a different filename? That may get tedious.

thank you

1, 2. This is just fine just make sure each Chart is using a separate Sheet within the same named Spreadsheet.
