    Hi,

     

    depends on the Client, If you use BOARD Win Client, also Excel needs to be installed on the PC, if you use HTML5 an installed excel is not necessary for exporting

    Hi,

     

    my fault, I thought you were talking about MS Excel License and not the BOARD Office Addin. The BOARD Office Addin is a seperate License which need is needed to create BOARD layout in Excel, Powerpoint or Word. For an pure Layout Export to Excel this license is not needed

    Hi,

     

    it seems, that a component is not installed in the correct way.

    Should be fixed after running those 2 steps,

    - reRun BOARD installation using Setup.exe

    - try a repair Installation of MS Office Suite
