https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/operation-and-testing/power/max-10-estimator-download.html after following the steps from the site when I try to run it in Excel 2010 it doesn't work :cry:. I tired Excel 2007 on someone else's laptop and it works fine. What should I do to make it work on my laptop?6 Replies
Altera_ForumJust wonder if you have tried to enable the macro in 2010 or other workarounds that are mentioned in the page?

Would you mind to share the error message that you observed in Excel 2010?

I have tired both of things they mention when you download the EPE. When I enabled macros following the steps from user guide and than click to change device the in the spreadsheet. The error "Run-Time error '438', object does not support this property or method" appears. The second method of converting the file format also leads to same error.

probably you should file a service request to Altera to see further assistance since the steps in the web does not help.

I managed to solve the issue by saving the Microsoft Excel 97-2003 Worksheet file that the EPE comes in to Microsoft Excel macro-enabled format. Thanks everyone.

Good to hear that you have managed to resolve the issue and get the EPE up and running.
