Description

                You know that the LONG Excel Button is installed but it does not show up on the tool bar.

 

Cause

The LONG Excel Button is a separate program that loads during the start-up process of Excel.  If the LONG Excel Add-In program loads too slow then Excel disables the LONG Excel Add-In program so Excel does not hang or freeze.  Because it is disabled it will not be visible or usable.

 

Fix

                To fix this you must re-enable the LONG Excel Button.   Please follow these steps to re-enable;

 

  1. Start Excel.  
  2. Open a blank Worksheet.
    1. Also, make sure you have no other Worksheets open.
  3. Click on File>>Options
  4. Click Add-Ins on the left column of the Excel Options window.
  5. On the bottom of the window change the Manage option to “COM Add-Ins”
  6. Click GO
  7. Check the box next to “LONG_ExcelAddIn”
  8. Click OK
  9. The box should close and the LONG menu item should appear in Excel
