I have tried installing xlcalcs but the ribbon won't show... I have tried =OVD(1)/UND(2) and I get 0.5, so the program is there, just the ribbon part isn't working. I tried deleting my user account and creating another and it didn't work. What should I do now?

Cheers.

Sorry you have been having some trouble. I still have not got to the bottom of this but it certainly has effected a few users in the past. The problem is that I cannot reproduce it on my machine to attempt to debug it. I'm pleased to see that you have managed to follow the advice in the forum.

Since "=OVD(1)/UND(2) is showing 0.5" XLC.xll is installed - good.

If the toolbar is not showing then XLC.dll is not installed properly. Let's see if we can do it manually. Can you log in as administrator?

Follow these instructions to register manually:
1) goto start button and select "run"
2) type in "cmd" this will get up a command prompt window.
3) navigate to the xlc install directory (use "cd" commands usually "cd C:Program FilesXLC"
4) check using "dir" that two files are present XLC.dll and XLC.xll
5) register XLC.dll by typing "regsvr32 XLC.dll" into the command prompt window. - you should get a message saying you have succeeded in registering. It may give an error message and I would be interested in what this says.
6) hopefully you can see the toolbar when you start Excel.

I followed your instructions and it worked! I got the succeeded in registering popup and now the addin ribbon is showing.

Thanks for your help. Great product by the way.

The XLC toolbar disappeared in my Add-In ribbon over the weekend. I have followed all of the procedures you have posted on the forum and while the two XLC.dll and XLC.xll files are present and the XLC.dll file has been registered, the XLC toolbar is still not showing up. I have tried unistalling and installing the XLC software twice, and still no toolbar. Do you have any suggestions on how I can get the toolbar back? A couple of weeks ago another worker at this office had the same problem and he has not been able to use ExcelCalcs. I have checked that everything is operational. Equations generated in the past still work and even change when the cell where the equation is changed, but I cannot display new equations without the toolbar.

I have just picked up your voice mail Ron in which you say that XLC is still working but you can't see the toolbar. If you are using Excel 2003 it may be that you have hidden the toolbar. You can un-hide it from the excel main menu view>toolbars>XLC. I hope this solves your problem.

Hello John,

The two of us at the office are using Excel 2007 and cannot get the toolbar to show up in the Add-In Ribbon.
