Downloading Pathagoras

Pathagoras is distributed exclusively over the Internet. 

Installing Pathagoras

You were (or upon request will be) mailed a zipped copy of the program. Unzip it using any program designed for that purpose. The result will be a file called 'pathagoras.xla'. You must place this file in the startup folder for Excel® projects.

   The XLStart folder most likely is:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft OfficeXX\XLStart  ('XX' stands for the version number of Microsoft® Office that you have installed. (Office2007=12, Office2003=11, OfficeXP=10, Office2000=9)

When you are in Excel, Pathagoras is automatically running. (Pathagoras is an Excel add-in and runs from within Excel. It has no ‘stand-alone’ capacity.)

Access to Pathagoras’ features is done through the new toolbar that now resides in the menu area of your screen:
