Automatically installing and running the Analysis ToolPak add-in
 

Hi all,

I was wondering if it is at all possible to create some coding that I
can add to my worksheet that will load the Analysis ToolPak add-in (if
not already installed), activate it (so I can use one of it's
functions), automatically recalculate the worksheet and then deactivate
the add-in once my worksheet has been updated.

This would save me a lot of time manually installing the add-in
personally on every computer of the people who want to review my worksheet.

Thanks in advance

Here is some code by Dana deLouise that installs the solver addin. You
should be able to adapt it to the analysis toolpak:

ub SolverInstall()
'// Dana DeLouis
Dim wb As Workbook

On Error Resume Next
' Set a Reference to the workbook that will hold Solver
Set wb = ActiveWorkbook

With wb.VBProject.References
.Remove .Item("SOLVER")
End With

With AddIns("Solver Add-In")
.Installed = False
.Installed = True
wb.VBProject.References.AddFromFile .FullName
End With
End Sub

Application.Calculate

will do a calculate.
