Frequently Asked Questions about the Computer Software What do I need to run the software? All the software are Microsoft Excel Templates. Excel is a spreadsheet program that is part of the Microsoft Office application. If you do not have Excel, you cannot run the programs. Sorry. Some templates are saved as a "stuffed" file (to save space on the server and to save download time. If you download a file and it ends with the extension: .sit you will need to un stuff the file before you can use it. To "un stuff" the program you must have the free Aladdin Expander found at http://www.stuffit.com/expander/ Will any other spreadsheet programs run the templates? No I have the template but I don't know if I have Excel? After downloading the file to your hard drive, double click on the template. If you have Excel, the program will automatically start. If it doesn't, you probably don't have Excel. I keep getting a message that says the cells are protected. Do I need a password? No. the cells are protected to prevent the over-writing of formulae. Use the tab key to move prom cell to cell. The tab key will only take you to cells that need and allow entry. We will not give out the password. I entered some data but nothing happened? The programs were originally written with the calculation process set to manual. If you enter data and nothing seems to change use the Function 9 key (f9). That should make values change. The recent templates have been designed with calculations set to automatic. I get a message saying that the template is "linked" to other data. It asks if I want to update the link? What do I do? Simply click continue. The link is an "orphan" that came from a very early version of one of the templates. By choosing continue, as opposed to update, the program should work just fine. |
