one.

Configuration

After installation, you may need to configure the FactoryTalk Historian
DataLink add-in in Microsoft Excel.

Microsoft Excel 2007

The FactoryTalk Historian DataLink setup program automatically installs
the DataLink add-in for Microsoft Excel 2007 if this version is found on
your system. No configuration is necessary.

Installation makes FactoryTalk Historian DataLink available to all users of
the client machine. If an individual user deactivates FactoryTalk Historian
DataLink or a related add-in, updates do not reactivate the add-in; it must
be restored manually. To restore add-ins:

1. Click the Microsoft Office Button and select Excel Options.
