The only 2 optimization packages I know of that work as XL add-ins are
from solver.com and lindo.com

I'm curious. What kind of "multiple variable" problem are you trying to
solve? Did you try Excel's version of Solver first? What kind of trial
version from www.solver.com did you try? In what way was the trial version
unsuccessful?

In addition to www.solver.com and www.lindo.com mentioned by Tushar Mehta,
www.palisade.com has an Excel optimization add-in called Evolver.
