Microsoft Excel Link license checkout failed

Asked By bellfast 0 points N/A Posted on - 08/04/2011

Hello to all,

I am posting here a problem that made some delays in my work. I met an error message while I trying to add Spreadsheet Link EX in the Excel Add-Ins. The error message that I received is Excel Link license checkout failed!

 

License Manager

Excel Link license checkout failed!

OK

I don't know the reason why I got such error. What I only did is to add Spreadsheet Link EX in the Excel Add-Ins. I already did this for so many times, and this is my first time to encounter this error message. Please share some comments on this issue. Thanks in advance.

Hello,

This error occurs when you have more than one installation of MATLAB on your computer. The problem here seems to be that Excel Link is opening wrong instance of the installation of MATLAB.

To fix this problem you can register the correct installation of MATLAB. You can do it as an automation server with a command line flag -regserver. You have to launch the same installation of MATLAB as that one there in Excel Link Add-In points to. You can quit this session after you have done with this and launch Excel which should now run with Spreadsheet Link EX.

Thanks

Jim.

Hello Bell,

That is probably an issue with your Microsoft office software. You will need to check it and make sure that its license has not expired. In case it has, you will need to renew it for you to be able to use excel as well as other Microsoft components without an issue.

Regards,

Nicke
