Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

It was planned to do that, but I don't know if this will be enough time to do that or not.In general, most of engineers who would like to use the Magic Tools, have installed Excel 2007 or 2010 in addition to their original versions.

Hi Zoltan

Thank you for your note.

As I have explained in this video

https://youtu.be/6fx25pT-Hao

in its minute 18:35 the XLS magic tool is working very well on Excel 2007 and 2010.

I didn't test any other versions.

All of the Magic Tools family:

1- The SDK Magic Tool.

2- The XER Magic Tool.

3- The XLS Magic Tool. 

are working very well on Excel 2007 and 2010.
