Linking to Excel

[hillsider7]

Problem with link to Excel. A popup occurs according to the video instructions, but it is not quite the same and will not allow anything to be typed into it. Have tried several times. Help!

It's usually when an invisible instance of Excel is running in the background. Try opening the task manager (alt-ctrl-del), select the processes tab and end all processes named Excel.exe. You will probably find there were two instances: the instance you were trying to connect to and the invisible instance causing the problem.

If the above does not make sense then try rebooting your PC which will ensure all instances are closed.

Hi Gary
Thanks for the reply.
I tried both these things. There was not 2 instances of Excel and i then rebooted. Unfortunately no change.

Are you using Office 2010 click to run version?

See http://gruss-software.co.uk/forum/viewt ... l&start=15 for solution (read the last message)

It is Office Starter 2010.
No matter, i will not pursue it any further. Thanks anyway.

Hi,

That's the reason anyway.
Office Starter 2010 is a cut down version.
You would need to upgrade it to the full version if you want to use the triggered betting feature.
