StatPlus:mac LE is a wholly independent application, like Solver for Excel 2008. The Mac Excel team collaborated with third-party software developer AnalystSoft, and the two came up with StatPlus:mac LE. Good luck!īTW – I found the VCL and Virtualbox to be the best options for me.Microsoft's Mac Business Unit has announced that it has a solution for Excel 2008 users who suddenly found themselves without the Analysis ToolPack, the Visual Basic-based data analysis add-on from previous versions of Excel. Hope this helps in your quest to be a Apple person living in a Microsoft world. Just dont convert to the dark side… (Windows user). If all else fails, borrow one of those $#%$^ Windows computers from a friend in exchange for whatever artsy thing you do because everyone who owns a Mac must be a designer, artist, freelancer, etc, etc. You will need a copy of Windows, which you can download free from your school and of course you will need to download Office 2010 (for free from your school) as well. The VirtualBox actually allows you to run an operating system in another operating system. Essentially it allows you to run Windows in a window (sorry I had to…) so Windows operates like any other program on your Mac. Heres why… You dont have to shutdown your Mac and restart it in Windows.
Almost as much work as the previous option but, I actually prefer this option. You can do Google search for more info on bootcamp and installing Windows on a Mac.Ĥ.) VirtualBox + Windows + Office 2010. Its a lot more work than it sounds but I believe they actually have a Mac version of Windows 8 specifically designed for this application. Install Windows in bootcamp, then install Office in your Windows. Also, you will want to download Office 2010 for Windows as well. First you will want to download Windows 8 (for free) from. I have not tried this so I wont get into specific of how it work. The plus side of this option is you can use other Windows specific applications with it.
Sound like a pain? It is but, if your a ECU student its free (other universities have simular programs). I have not been able to get the VCL to work through Chrome on a Mac.ģ.) Bootcamp + Windows + Office 2010. Other than that, It works great! *Hint: Use your Safari browser when accessing the VCL. The only way I know of uploading or downloading files to your piratedrive is through Onestop/Piratedrive. Heres the catch… You can only open/save files to/from your piratedrive so accessing your files can be a pain in the. Instead select the “Risk Solver Platform”. It will not allow you to install the addons. Once have installed the appropriate plugin, make sure you use “option 2” to access Microsoft Office, then login with your student credentials. If you have not used the VCL before you may need to download a plugin for your browser to use it. This is my preferred method to use the analysis toolpak in Excel. Some universities provide a virtual computer lab for students to access certain programs. It is nearly impossible to follow an example from an instructor using Excel on Windows. I performed a few Histograms with this software and I was highly disappointed with the functionality of this software. You can download a free version of the StatPlus addon by a Analystsoft. You may want to see what software resources your school provides for you.įYI – some of these options will work for other Windows specific programs and applications.ġ.) Statplus by Analystsoft. Since I am a student at East Carolina I will provide the options available to me. To save you sometime researching your different options, I have found a few different ways you can access the Excel Analysis Toolpak on your Mac.
If your a student such as myself and use a Mac, you have probably run into a few complications in certain course work.
