How to show toolbar for non admin users? 5 Months, 3 Weeks ago Karma: 0  
Hello All,

Firstly thanks for this great addition to Excel. Its a very clever idea and probably long overdue. I frequently put together the equation using equation editor in my workbook and its painful not to mention not linked at all to the formula. I'm pretty sure colleagues will find this useful too.

I have a question about installation. I used the manual install method (register dll and add addin) and that worked fine under administrator rights on my laptop, however I can only see the addin under other users (XP Home) and I can't see the toolbar. Trying to register the dll under these users fails, most likely due to rights restrictions. So my question is - is there some way I can add a key or something to the registry so that all users can see the toolbar? I ask this because I usually try to avoid working on the laptop as administrator.

Many thanks, and congrats,

Tim.

Thanks for your encouraging comments Tim. Its good to have you aboard. You are quite correct if XLC.dll is not registered (either manually or automatically when setup.exe is run) the toolbar will not show. Unfortunately I can't think of another way of helping you. You'll just have to install it when you have administrator rights (which is the way we would normally advise anyway).

Hi John,

Thanks for getting back so promptly. I went ahead and did a full install, but it still just shows up under Administrator.

I'm hoping we have slightly above admin rights at work so that I can install it, as I've shown it to a few of the team who were all very impressed.

Thanks again,
Tim.
