Excel Add-in

Hello,

I am using Mac and want to have the Excel add-in displayed as shown below: (2.png)

However, I only have the following:

How to get access to the first one(2. png)? On windows I know that in the start menu, I can try searching for 'Eikon' then looking for 'Refinitiv Eikon - Microsoft Excel'. However, I don't know how to do that on Mac.

Thanks for reaching out to us.

As I know, there is no Eikon Desktop for macOS, as shown on this page.

I think this is why it doesn't have Eikon Excel Add-ins on macOS. It required Eikon Desktop to run Eikon Excel Add-ins.

However, please contact the Eikon support team directly via MyRefinitiv to confirm this.

Hello, @Jirapongse

I am sorry to disturb you but so far I was unable to install pertinent excel-add in on Mac. I have read the information you provided to me, in addition to reported details on the Refinitiv website.

However, I still do not understand how to install the add as presented in 2.jpg file above.

I do not have relevant background, and I cannot understand the following paragraph:

At the present time, Eikon cannot be installed natively on Mac® operating systems so users would need virtualization software to run in Windows to get the full desktop experience. Virtualization software support is offered on a ‘best-effort’ basis. However, users can access a zero-footprint version in their web browser (Chrome/Safari).

What is the virtualization software and how to use it on Mac?

What is a zero-footprint version and how to use it on Mac?

Thank you and have a nice day.
