Enable add-in automatically
 

Hi,

I have a workbook that uses the NETWORKDAYS function, which is pat of
the Analysis Toolpack add-in.

The problem is, when the workbook is opened on another PC, then the
NETWORKDAYS appear as #NAME. It is very annoying to have to explain
every user to turn on the add-in.

Is there a way to automatically (preferably without the use of VBA or
macro's) have the add-in enabled when the document is opened?

If there is absolutely no way, then what is the easiest way to use VBA
or a automatic start-up macro to enable the add-in?

Enable add-in automatically
 
It should automatically load the ATP. To force it to, put the
following code in the ThisWorkbook module:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.AddIns("Analysis ToolPak").Installed = True
End Sub

This assumes that the ATP actually resides on the PC.
