Notes:
  • If you are an existing SpotlightXL user and you want to use Spotlight only with Excel, then install the SpotlightXL MSI.
  • You will continue to receive automatic updates if you previously installed ClickOnce for SpotlightXL.
  • If you previously installed with InstallShield MSI, uninstall the current Add-In and install the latest MSI Add-In.
  • You should install the 64-bit version if you are using a 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows.
  • You should install the 32-bit version if you are using a 32-bit version of Microsoft Windows.
  • Backward compatibility refers to the version of the Add-In client that works with the Dynamic Planning server. Backward compatibility is never more than 3 months. Planful recommends that users get automatic updates monthly using ClickOnce. However, if this is not possible, then update it at least quarterly using the InstallShield MSI method.
