Update
We have programmed the setup program of the Excel Add-In so that none of your data will be lost after installation. In order to see all the above templates in Excel, the installation must be performed on a system that does not have the add-in. If your system already has the add-in and you want to install the new templates, please uninstall the existing add-in first and delete the above directories. Please save any existing templates first! You can then reinstall them in the Add-In with the help of these instructions.
