The SM_PlateKnuckleRules.xls workbook defines the rules for plate knuckles in the catalog. The workbook is delivered to the [Product Folder]\ShipCatalogData\Bulkload\DataFiles\ folder and is bulkloaded into the catalog.
The workbook is delivered with the PlateKnuckleRule worksheet.
The application code expects to retrieve the rule using the rule number = 600. You do not have to modify anything in the spreadsheet. The only changes that you may need to make are in the actual implementation of the rule. If you want to create your own rule with a different ProgID, you must change the ProgID field in the XLS file.
