Has anyone used a third-party Excel compiler? I'm thinking that this may be a
better way to deploy a model into the field. Do they shrink the file and make
recalculation faster? Are there other benefits? Are there deployment issues?
Thanks

Has anyone used a third-party Excel compiler?

Do you know of any? Visual Baler is the only one I've heard of the claims
to read Excel files and it doesn't run macros and it appears to be moribund.

I've never used one and googled a couple of others: doneex and kdcalc. I may
get one and test it. Nothing ventured...
