I use Solver with Excel 2007. After starting Excel, Solver will not work. Both boxes for Solver Addins (yes, there are 2) are checked. The only solution I have found is to uncheck both boxes, close the addins list, opening it again and check both boxes. After closing, Solver works fine.

I have tried to write VBA scripts to automate this but none have worked. Only the manual procedure indicated will do the trick.

Any help appreciated.

Addins are registered in either the HKey_Current_User or the HKey_Local_Machine
Registry locations. Solver Add-in is not listed in either but is listed (only
once) in each installed version of Excel Add-ins Manager dialog. Checking it
causes Excel to install this addin on 1st use, but it does not show in the
Registry where other Add-ins or COMAddins show. Once installed, it's available
to all installed versions of Excel, for all users. That suggests it registers
under HKey_Current_Root; - good luck finding where!

==========================

Pretty sure you shouldn't have two Solver addins, only solver.xlam; there's
also a helper Solver32.dll. If you've got two ticked what are their
respective filenames.., can't be the same and both loaded.

If the solver addin was unpacked when you installed Office it should be in
the Library folder, a subfolder of Office 2007 in program files. Bundled
addin files in this folder automatically exist in the addins collection, and
with code should be able to un/install it (ie ticked to load on startup)
Dim ad as addin
Set ad = Application.Addins("Solver Add-in")
ad.Installed = True

Might be worth looking in -
HKCU\\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Options
and and look for any conflicts, two OPEN keys with solver perhaps

Thanks Peter. I appear to have a conflict between the XLA and XLAM versions of the Solver file. For many years I used XLA with E 2003. Now after opening E 2007, I get messages indicating it cannot find XLA. Per your suggestion,I did find XLA listed (as well as XLAM)and I removed Solver.XLA from the registry. In the Addins file under Users\...\Roaming\Microsoft\Addins I located Solver.XLAM.

After all this, Excel is still looking for Solver.XLA. Can you please suggest steps to permanently "divorce" Excel 2007 from Solver.XLA.

Thank you very much for your help, this is a really nagging problem!

====================================

AFAIK bundled addins like solver should not be in Roaming\Microsoft\Addins,
that's the default location for your own addins
?application.UserLibraryPath

Bundled addins should be in the 'Library' folder I mentioned
?application.LibraryPath

If you deleted any reference to the solver.xla in the registry I don't know
why Excel is still looking for it, do you get some sort message about that
when Excel loads?

I would uninstall Solver, move all solver files say to desktop. Look at
Options and make sure Solver is not listed, and if you deleted any OPEN#
entries you 'decremented' any later OPEN# so you've got OPEN, OPEN1,2, 3 etc

Look in \Add-in Manager in the same path as Options, that's where
uninstalled addins not in one of the library paths (see above) get listed.

Maybe search the registry for solver in case mirrored in a Hkey-Users\S type
listing

If you can get rid of all trace try moving solver.xlam to the
app.LibraryPath
Or might be better to extract with the Office setup in control panel -
programs, don't recall exactly but you should be able to find it.

Not sure I follow..?

Addins in app.LibraryPath and UserLibraryPath automatically exist in the
addins collection whether installed or not. Addins in other locations can be
added to the addin's collection, thereafter will be listed Options or
'Add-in manager' depending on whether installed. If removed entirely should
manually delete from Add-in Manager if still there.

Since 2007 .UserLibraryPath is the default addins location, except for
bundled addins (solver etc) which continue in .LibraryPath

find.

FWIW
You do know that 2007 (v12) is the 'Windows ME' of MS Office, right? I highly
recommend replacing it with at least v2010Pro which you can probably find

As Claus said you need to add a reference to the solver addin, though in an
English system if would be in Tools / References, not "Extras" :)

If solver.xlam is already loaded tick "SOLVER" which you should see near the
top of the list. But just for this it doesn't need to be loaded or installed
as an addin, just browse to the file in References. In future it should load
automatically with your file if not already loaded.

Many thanks to Peter, Garry, and now Claus. I resolved all my problems. One last question (I hope). The final pop-up from Solver (Solver Results) requires user to click on the OK button to close it. Is there some way via VBA to do this and completely automate the process.

You guys are incredible resources for a tyro like myself. Thanks for helping me out.

Indeed that's what the documentation says, but don't be surprised if the
dialog appears again!

.. and looking back at your post with your code you already had exactly
that...?

PT

Well, for now it works. My code had just

SolverSolve

Addition of "True" appears to have helped. Hopefully it will remain so. Thanks, regards

Thanks Peter. In case it's helpful to you:

SolverSolve True

works. Regards

Fair enough and my memory may well be wrong on this.

FWIW in what you said yesterday was your code (when you said it was giving a
compile error) SolverSolve included True:

solverSolve (True)

I wonder if adding True without parentheses helped? At any rate it appears to work for now. Thanks again for your interest.

Normally, the parenthesis are not needed when the method is not on the right
hand side of '=', OR when the enclosed does not include an operator.

SolverSolve True 'correct syntax
SolverSolve (True) 'incorrect syntax

With operator involved:
ret = SolverSolve(True) 'correct syntax if SolverSolve returns a value
bSuccess = (Err = 0) 'correct syntax using an operator
returns True if no error, otherwise returns False
