Table InIO-005

Reads the workbook's input pages and gives you the values to build from. Wire the workbook reference and press run. Values are looked up by column and key name, so inserting rows or reordering columns in the spreadsheet is safe. What was read is stored with the Grasshopper file, so the canvas keeps working without pressing run again.
