'// ~~

'// Parameters:

'//                    qvDoc - Reference to the QlikView document (normally just use

'//                                        "ActiveDocument", but you can also use copyObjectsToExcel

'//                                        outside of QlikView ...

'//                    aryExportDefinition - array of settings

'// ~~

'// Version 1.02

'// ~~

'// The aryExportDefinition is used to pass the following properties to

'// copyObjectsToExcelSheet:

'//

'//   Index                    Description

'// ------------------------

'//           0          -           Id of the QlikView object to copy from

'//           1          -           Name of the sheet (in Excel) where the object should be copied to

'//

'//                                        (If a sheet with the same name already exists no new

'//                               sheet will be created, instead the existing sheet will

'//                                        be used for pasting the object)

'//

'//                                        Note: the sheetName can be max 31 characters long

'//

'//                    2          -           Range in Excel where the object should be pasted to

'//                    3          -           PasteMode ["data", "image"]

'//                                        Defines if the objects underlaying data should be

'//                                        pasted ("data") or the the image representing the object

'//                                        should be used
