Description
If the current calculation is stored and you specify its
context, this function will be evaluated based on that context; otherwise, it will be evaluated based on the context of the current window.
Note If you use Get(FileName) in a function parameter that requires a filename and the filename contains a period, include the filename extension in the parameter. Otherwise, functions may interpret the period in the filename as the beginning of the filename extension, which can lead to unexpected results.
Examples
Returns Contacts when Contacts is the active file.
