Editing Expression using the Spreadsheet

I have a number of expressions linked to features, and a number of user-defined expressions.

In simple terms, I want them all to be linked.

I'd prefer not to have to do it one-by-one.

I set "p1=a1" and opened the spreadsheet, to see the syntax.

From the spreadsheet, how do I now link the other expressions? I assumed I could enter "p2" and so on into the other cells.

I could use Export-Import, but I'd like to stay within NX.

Yea, that's about it. Starting with NX 11.0 it will be a bit more straight forward as the Expression Editor itself behaves like a spreadsheet so you will be able to do it directly inside of NX. Of course, you'll still need to edit each Expression but at least you won't need to keep going back and forth between the NX and the spreadsheet app.

Just tested with NX11, and yes, it does work as expected,
