Excel troubles

Post #1by Lalla » 13.04.2006, 11:54

I've downloaded xls file (alignment objects) but I've a trouble with my Excel program, I can't install it,cd's down.
Maybe is there another way to calculate exact axis alignment?
My cmod files are aligning in wrong way and I don't know how aligning them correctly.
Thanks for help.

You might consider installing OpenOffice. It's free but very large.

Alternatively, you can follow the instructions for making manual orientation adjustments. They're long because I tried to make them complete.

You need to type a tab or return to go to another field. That should trigger the recalculation.

You may also use Shift+Ctrl+F9 to manually recalculate your
formulae.

Just FYI.

Thanks.
