TAD is an Excel add-in, which allows you to use TAD in all your Excel files. The add-in below will need to be placed in a shared folder on the network. The suggested folder name is “TAD”.

• TAD Application V{TADVersion}.xlam

By placing the add-in in a shared folder, it makes future updates easier as you just replace one file instead of a file on each user’s machine.
