Before you begin

Install Excel Add-In.

Procedure

  1. Open a new Microsoft Excel worksheet.
  2. Select File > Options.
    The Excel Options window appears.
  3. Select Add-Ins.
  4. In the Manage box, select Excel Add-ins, and then select Go.
    The Add-Ins window appears.

  5. Select the Proficy Historian Add-In and Proficy_Historian_Helper check boxes, and then select OK.
    If the Proficy Historian Add-In and Proficy_Historian_Helper check boxes do not appear, select Browse to locate the Historian.xla file for the check boxes to appear.
