An add-in is software that adds one or more features to Excel. Installing add-ins gives you additional Excel features that aren’t available on the Ribbon by default. Bundled add-in software is included with Excel but isn’t automatically installed when you install Excel. Several add-ins come standard with Excel, including Solver.

You install bundled add-ins by using the Excel Options dialog box; you can find them in the Add-Ins section. After they're installed, add-ins are available right away. They usually appear on a tab related to their function. For example, Solver appears on the Data tab.

Here are the steps to follow to load the Solver add-in:

1 Choose File ⇒ Options.The Excel Options dialog box appears.

3 In the Manage list, select Excel Add-Ins and then select Go.Excel displays the Add-Ins dialog box.

4 Select the Solver Add-In check box.

5 Click OK.Excel adds a Solver button to the Data tab’s Analysis group.
