Hi,

I have a simple question:

There is a nb-file, say "Source.nb", which is called and should be evaluated as 
a whole (containing several procedures in a group of input cells) from another 
nb-file, say "Application.nb" which needs these procedures for further 
calculations.

Within "Application.nb" the notebook "Source.nb" is correctly opened and pops up 
by NotebookOpen["filepath\Source.nb"]. It is, of course, possible to evaluate 
the cell group manually but the idea is to do this automatically and then return 
after evaluation to the calling nb-file "Application.nb" and close "Source.nb" 
using NotebookClose["filepath\Source.nb"].

I miss a command such as NotebookEvaluate[...]. The commands EvaluationNotebook 
and SelectionEvaluate are not just doing what I want. Suggestions are appreciated.
