Hi erevyone!

I want to use the Excel link tool to export the model variables and when I click the “Open Excel” button I get the following error: “No entity was provided for Excel interface”. Same happens with the Push to and Pull from buttons. I attach a couple of screenshots.
I imagine that this error is because I have not linked correctly the excel with Ansys, but I dont know how to do it!
Could someone help me? 
Thank you very much in advance!!

Hi Alberto,

Please verify if the Excel folder exists in the installation directory at C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v2xx\Addins\MSExcel with all subfolders and dlls. Additionally, on the main Workbench window, ensure that the Microsoft Office Excel icon is activated by going to View > Toolbox Customization and enable the visibility of Microsoft Office Excel Component by checking the box next to it.

Hi Avnish Pandey,

Thanks a lot for the quick reply! For some strange reason, I had the Microsoft Office Excel icon disabled in Toolbox Customization.

Cheers!
