OrcFxAPI is a Windows dynamic link library (DLL) that is installed when you install OrcaFlex. To cater for this, OrcaFlex comes with a programming interface, called OrcFxAPI (short for OrcaFlex Application Program Interface).

In addition, some OrcaFlex users simply dont want to use the spreadsheet for a variety of reasons. There are some tasks that you just cannot do with the spreadsheet. However as good as the spreadsheet is, we recognise that it has some limitations. It is a robust, efficient, easy to use option that is, and will continue to be, the primary automation facility that we promote for use with OrcaFlex.
