#How to add data analysis tool in excel how to#
I’m posting this quick how-to for those of you that don’t know how to enable it or even know where to locate it. The problem with the Excel add-in is that it is not loaded by default, this quickly became a problem for the professor teaching the class because he had to walk everyone through the process of enabling the powerful add-in. Once I enabled the add-in and learned how to use the tools it provided, I have not used any other statistical tool except perhaps Minitab, but then I use that for the more complex analysis.

I stumbled on the Analysis ToolPak when I took an quantitative analysis class for my Masters program. Locate Analysis ToolPack and click on it. It is on the left, second option from the bottom. You’ll see the excel options dialogue box. Excel like many of Microsoft’s other Office applications are extremely powerful tools that have many ‘hidden’ features. To install the Analysis toolPak in Excel 2016 follow these steps.
