Bug Description

I'm desperate to use this plug-in and I'm trying to follow your instruction but I can't see how to make it work .
Here is what'I've done so you can reproduce it :

(MaxOsX 10.8 + Excel2011)

- Download the latest file from your website : http://mirrors.ctan.org/support/excel2latex/Excel2LaTeX.xla
- Double Click the file
- In excel I receive a warning "This workbook contains macro..." I press Enable Macros
- In excel I open my spreadsheet ( FIle -> Open -> myfile.xlsx )
- I select the table I want to export to latex
- Under the "Tool" menu, nothing related to Latex seems to show up
- Under the script ribbon (Automation Workflow ) nothing shows up
- I open the dialog under "Tools -> Add-ins" , and I don't see anything;
- In the same dialog I press select and browse the xla file
- I Markcheck the Exel2Latex.Xla and press ok
- I just found out that the "export to latex" now lies under "Format" menu and not under "Tools" unlike you wrote on the README ;)
- EDIT1: now that I've found it, when I open it it doesn't work Error runtime-5
- EDIT2: After closing and re-opening excel and re-execute the same procedure from scratch, the menu items is literally disappeared from any menus :(

Thanks a lot, you are saving my life

Sorry for the slow reply.

Indeed, the add-in commands are located in the "Format" menu. I have added a "known issues" section to the README.

Could you try again with release 3.3? Unfortunately, I cannot replicate this runtime error on the machine I have access to...
