==Installing OnePager Express Version 7.0==

Installation of OnePager Express ('''OPX''') for version 7.0 remains the same as previous versions.  The process is repeated there for your convenience.  We smartened up our Installer and are offering you two installation options to launch '''OPX''' as an '''Add-in''' to Microsoft Excel and a new option to launch '''OPX''' directly from a '''desktop''' icon. For more information please see the article at: [[Getting Started with OnePager Express Version 7.0 Desktop | Getting Started with OnePager Express Desktop]] <!-- 3.0.2.2-70-->

==Smart Installer==

The '''OPX''' installer comes in two varieties: 

:1) an .EXE file for individuals to install on their desktop and

:2) a .ZIP file for IT professionals that are installing '''OPX''' into a managed network environment. 

The .EXE smart installer figures out the '''bitness''' of your computer (i.e., 32-bits or 64-bits) and installs the correct '''bitness''' to match your computer automatically. The .ZIP file for IT professions and contains all installation instructions in the .ZIP file’s README.rtf file.  No further discussion on IT professional installations is provided here.

Both installers provide you with the options to install both the '''OPX Add-in''' and '''desktop icon''' launch options or to just install the '''OPX desktop icon''' launch option only.  Regardless of which of these two options is selected, your computer still requires that Microsoft Excel be installed and available.

===Microsoft .Net Version Requirements to Run OnePager===

'''OPX''' version 7.0 requires that the users have installed Microsoft .NET version 4.5 Full or later on their computer.  If the .NET 4.5 or later Framework is not installed on your computer, [https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30653 download it for free] from Microsoft. OnePager displays both the required Microsoft .NET version and the Microsoft .NET version installed at the '''About''' tab on the ribbon’s '''File''' tab as shown below:
