Overview
Vision XL, which is a part of Vision for SunSystems suite of products is a Excel add-in program. Excel add-in programs provide a quick-and-easy way to extend the basic features of Excel. Most of the add-in programs created for Excel offer you some kind of specialized function or group of functions that extend Excel’s computational abilities.
For example, Excel includes an Analysis ToolPak that gives you immediate access to some fifteen additional sophisticated statistical functions, including such things as Anova, Covariance, F-Test: Two-Sample for Variances, Fourier Analysis, Histogram, Rank and Percentile, t-Test, and z-Test, among others.
It also includes a Conditional Sum Wizard, Lookup Wizard, and Solver Add-in that you can use to perform other types of analysis.
Installing Vision XL Add-in
Before you can use any Vision XL add-in program, the add-in must be installed in the proper folder on your hard drive, and then you must select the add-in in the Excel Add-Ins dialog box.
The Vision XL add-in is installed automatically when Vision suite is installed on your computer.
The Vision XL add-in program is saved in a special file format identified with the .XLA (for Excel Add-in) filename extension in your Vision program directory.
To activate an add-in program (and thereby put it into the computer’s memory), go to Tools -> Add-Ins -> click Browse button and locate in your Vision program directory a file called "LsVisXLB.xla". Select it and click Ok.
Now select the check box in front of its name in the Add-Ins dialog box (see Figure below), and then click OK:
Now you can log into Vision and start using it.
Getting Online Add-ins
The add-ins that Microsoft includes as part of the Excel program aren’t the only ones that you can lay your hands on.
You can find additional free Excel add-ins on the Microsoft Office Web site, and many third-party vendors sell Excel add-ins that you can often purchase online and then immediately download onto your hard drive.
To locate free Excel add-ins from Microsoft, go online to the Office Web site at: office.microsoft.com
Once there, click the Excel link, enter add-ins as the search text in the Search text box, and click Go.
Doing this brings up a Web page isting pages of free add-ins that you can download and use with your version of Excel.
Note: that addins are very version-specific, so be sure that you only download those that are compatible with the version of Excel that you’re using.

Visual Basic Project error
Written by Guest on 2007-01-04 02:00:36
I have installed the Vision add-in as it's written here but when I tried to log into Vision, the Excel generated the message that there is no access to visual basic project. As a result I was not able to log into Vision. Can you help? | Written by Guest on 2007-01-04 10:42:43
You are receiving this error message because you haven't enabled your Vision macro security. To enable it in Excel go to Tools -> Macro -> Security. On the first tab check security level Medium. On the Trusted Publishers tab check both "Trust all installed add-ins and templates" and "Trust access to Visual Basic Project".
Restart Excel and log into Vision. | Here some explanations

how can i install add-ins (vision) for ms office2007 | Written by Guest on 2008-10-10 09:20:34
I have vision installed and it is working fine. However, when I open any workbooks that have formulas in them, it is changing the calculation from automatic to Manual. Is there anyway of stopping this from happening? |
