From: Bikertex on 29 Nov 2009 10:24 Hi Ron -- Thank you. I tried that and am getting the same result; no megastat. ;-( "Ron Rosenfeld" wrote: > On Sun, 29 Nov 2009 06:07:01 -0800, Bikertex > <Bikertex(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote: > > >Issue -- Cannot start Megastat addin for Excel 2007 > >System: Macbook running Boot Camp with Windows XP Professional and Office > >2007 > > > >Installed the add-in; went to Excel Options and selected add-in.

So let me ask a few questions that should enable us to determine where the problem is. 1. What is the path of the folder in which you unzipped (extracted) the Megastat files? 2. In that folder, is there a file named Megastat.xla? (and also Megastat.hlp). 3. In Excel 2007, after you clicked the Office button Excel Options Add-ins the next step is down at the bottom of the page. There is a dropdown box labeled Manage: fill with with "Excel Add-ins" then <Go> That should open a dialog box, with a list of add-ins and a button on the left side entitled "Browse". After you select Browse, and navigate to the folder you determined in Step 2, what do you see? --ron

I thought it was straightforward too, but just cannot figure out where I went wrong. Here's the answers to your questions: 1. What is the path of the folder in which you unzipped (extracted) the Megastat files? C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\Library 2. In that folder, is there a file named Megastat.xla? (and also Megastat.hlp). Yes to both. 3. In Excel 2007, after you clicked the Office button Excel Options Add-ins the next step is down at the bottom of the page. There is a dropdown box labeled Manage: fill with with "Excel Add-ins" then <Go> That should open a dialog box, with a list of add-ins and a button on the left side entitled "Browse". After you select Browse, and navigate to the folder you determined in Step 2, what do you see? Can select from the following files: HTML.XLAM, MegaStat2007.xla, RDBQAT.XLAM (downloaded to force the add'-ins tab in the hopes that would help.) Thanks so much for your help. ..
