Recently we "upgraded" to MS Office 2007. Still getting used to the "new and improved" interface, but I keep experiencing an annoying problem.
If I have an Excel spreadsheet open, and then want to import data from the System i into a new spreadsheet, when I select the 'Add-In' menu bar option, the icons for the Transfer functions are shown, but they won't work. Sometimes it gives me a message (something about "can only be used in the first spreadsheet" or such). Sometimes, like right now, it (Excel) doesn't do squat.
Only after I close all of the spreadsheets, shut down Excel, and start Excel back up, do the Transfer functions work. In Excel 2000 it would occasionally lose the add-ins (even though they were checked), and I'd have to re-install them, but 2007 isn't losing the add-ins; it just won't run them. Oh, and sometimes it works fine even if I have several other spreadsheets open - but rarely.
Anyone have a clue what is causing this? Or more to the point, what, if anything, I can do to eliminate the problem?
Thanks.
