In a command script the relative file paths can use sub-folders by using a forward slash "/"
This works well.
Is it also possible to go a level higher to a superordinate folder? Let's say I have a folder wich contain my command scripts that is a subfolder to a folder which contains an excel file and I want to import that excel file.
Is the only way to temporarily copy the command script to the superordinate folder containing the excel file or can I somehow indicate that in the path?
I have tried ../ or ..\ but that does not seem to work.

Kind regards,

It will not work without modification to Vensim. We'd need to change Vensim to recursively replace any occurrences of ".." with the parent folder names.

I have to correct myself, I actually got it to work with the help of a colleague!
Here is my example code:
MENU>XLS2VDF|..\another_subfolder_to_parent_folder\SpreadsheetWithData.xls|..\Data.vdf|..\another_subfolder_to_parent_folder\FormFile.frm|sheetname
