Excel Add-in setup.

Mark Owens

I've recently purchased the Passolo Excel Add-in.

So far I'm quite happy with the way it works, but I find the set up quite fiddly.

Setting up the add-in for one Excel format, then adding several languages to it can get quite repetitive. I cannot see a way of using Passolo automation to apply settings to a new project either. I've thought about having "template" projects, each with a specific Excel add-in setting different spreadsheets but that seems a little messy.

I'd love a solution similar to the one used for the XML parser: i.e. have the ability to create and save several different Excel Addin configs so I could choose the appropriate one for the spreadsheet I am translating.

Any thoughts?
Mark

    There are not many client projects where such a feature is needed. In most use cases the Excel file is quite large and the column layout is always the same. If the sheet layout is the same you can configure the setting for multiple files and sheets.

    On the other side you are right. If you have to manage many Excel files with different sheet layouts, configuring the projects can be cumbersome and like any other parser there is no way to configure the setting using COM automation.

    I will propose this feature as an enhancement, but in the end cannot promise if it will become available.
