2.3.2 Microsoft
®
Excel
®
Log/Export options are not available
In order for the Excel
®
log/export options to be available, Excel
®
2000 or later must be
installed on the machine and at least one printer must be installed under Windows
®
. If
Excel
®
2000 or later is installed and you have printers installed but the Excel
®
option is still
unavailable, it may be because Excel
®
cannot access the printer driver information of the
Windows
®
default printer. If the Windows
®
default printer is a network printer and you are
not currently connected to the network, then Excel
®
will most likely not be able to access
the printer driver information and Daniel MeterLink
™
cannot use Excel
®
to generate
reports or logs. One solution is to install a local printer on your machine tied to LPT1. The
local printer driver you installed can be for any printer and the printer does not actually
have to exist or be connected to the PC. If you install a local printer, you can configure
Daniel MeterLink to temporarily change your Windows
®
default printer over to this local
printer while running Daniel MeterLink. Do this by selecting this local printer for the
Override system default printer selection in the Program Settings dialog. Daniel MeterLink
will automatically change the Windows
®
default printer to the selected override printer
when it starts and will set the Windows
®
default printer back to its original printer when it
closes.
2.3.3
Maintenance logs or trend files are not created
When using Excel
®
2007 or later, some of the worksheets in the Maintenance Logs or
Trend files are not created. If the Inspection sheet of the Maintenance Log file or the
Charts sheet of a Trend files are not generated, it is probably because Excel
®
is not
configured to allow Daniel MeterLink to run the Visual Basic
®
script that generates the
page. Excel
®
can be configured to allow Daniel MeterLink to run the Visual Basic
®
script by
following the instructions below.
To enable Excel
®
2007 to work with Daniel MeterLink,
