An external workbook is a SpreadsheetML package whose contents are being referenced by the current SpreadsheetML package. When a package refers to external workbooks, it shall store the location of those workbooks using this relationship.
A package is permitted to contain one or more External Workbook relationships, and those relationships shall be an explicit relationship from the External Workbook References (§12.3.9) part.
[Example: An External Workbook References part, which references the package c:\sourceData.xlsx would have an External Workbook relationship, which points at that file:
<Relationships xmlns="...">
<Relationship Id="rId1"
Type="http://.../externalLinkPath"
Target="c:\sourceData.xlsx" TargetMode="External"/>
</Relationships>
end example]
A external workbook shall be located external to the package containing the source relationship (expressed syntactically, the TargetMode attribute of the Relationship element shall be External).
