I have recently acquired an upgrade version of Office 2003 &
Installed it on a different computer from my previous Office
2000 version (IOW, a fresh install, not an upgrade install
per se).

When I try to use an existing XL2000 data file generated by
the old invoice wizard, XL2003:

1. Won't display the custom tool bar (oddly, unless I launch
Word 2003 and then return to XL2003!) and

2. When I try to write the form data to the database, I get
a message indicating that I need to install the "Template
Wizard Addin Program." When I click "help" from this dialog,
the program attempts to find the XLMAIN8.HLP help file,
which is presumably the help file from the older version.

I have searched MS's Office web site and the closest thing I
can find is a "Template Wizard with Data Tracking" for
XL2002. I attempted to install it, but the install gave no
indication of success or failure, nor did the "Template
Wizard" entry appear on the Tools menu (yes, I closed XL2003
before installing).

Is there a way to get the old template to work with XL2003?
I am well versed with VBA, but would prefer a canned
solution .

TIA

Mike

It should work with the 2002 add-in, not the 2000

As i said in my original post...

"...I attempted to install it, but the install gave no

Any other suggestions?

How did you install it? You need to check it under tools-add-ins once you
have clicked the exe file

Peo,

I really appreciate your help on this. Not sure why the thread is being
completely ignored in nntp://microsoft.public.excel...

To answer your questions:

I installed it (twice now) directly from this page:

http://office.microsoft.com/search/r...CD246D0F372397

From XL2003, the entry is NOT shown from Tools|Add-Ins, only the following:

Analysis ToolPak
Analysis ToolPak - VBA
Conditional Sum Wizard
Euro Currency Tools
Internet Assistant VBA
Lookup Wizard
Solver Add-In

Browsing for add-ins immediately shows an empty add-ins folder. A search of
my C: drive for *.xla;*.xll came up negative for the referenced add-in as well

I can find the XL2000 version of it (WZTEMPLT.XLA) on my old machine, but
I'm hesitant to import it into XL2003, especially in light of the failure to
install the Office XP version, and the fact that I don't know it's
dependencies (DLL's, XLL's, ODBC, etc.)

FWIW, I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2, Windows Firewall is off (I'm behind a
real hardware firewall)

Hi
The Add-in is working in 2003 only the install file is not working.
Copy the xla file from a PC with 2002 to the PC with 2003
and it will work(use Toolsadd-ins to browse to the file in Excel)


If you don't have a PC with 2002 then mail me private and then i send you
the xla file
