This may be due to either the Velixo add-in not being activated, or it could be that something interfered with the installation process.

 


Is the Velixo ribbon turned off?

You can check if the ribbon has been turned off within Excel by going to File | Options | Customize Ribbon and ensuring that the Velixo entry is checked:

The add-in will not function properly if either component is disabled.  

 

Choose Disabled Items from the small drop-down menu at the bottom of the window and then press the Go button.  


If any item is disabled, it will appear in the popup window:

 


Select any Velixo items and click Enable for each of those.

 

Restart Excel.
