Hi, I am facing the problem in starting the link to math kernel from within Excel. Specifically, when I get the message "link failed to open" when I click Launch button in the 'Start Mathematica Link' dialog box. I have tried using Multilink too so that I am able to access the kernel from Mathematica and Excel simultaneously but I still get the same message. I am currently using Mathematica 4.0 and Excel 2002 (Excel XP). The programs Mathematica and Excel otherwise appear to work fine. I am using Windows XP home edition on Dell 8100 laptop. I have used the Mathematica Link for MS Excel for Excel 2000 in my installation as there were no specific files for Excel 2002. Given that I was able to successfully add the menus within excel I think the addin should work fine but it does not? All help would be sincerely appreciated. Sincerely, Tahir Sheikh. PS: Is it that
