Installing OnePager Bundle with OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express for Version 7.1

From OnePager Documentation
Jump to: navigation, search

Introduction

Most OnePager users install either OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express into a user account for use with Microsoft Project or Microsoft Excel, respectively. OnePager Pro and OnePager Express operate in two modes: (1) The Add-in mode where OnePager is launched from “inside” Microsoft Project or Microsoft Excel, or (2) The Standalone mode where either OnePager Pro or OnePager Express is launched from a desktop icon, the Windows task-bar, or Start-Menu shortcuts.

OnePager Bundle offers capabilities of OnePager Pro and OnePager Express in both the Add-in and Standalone modes. With the capabilities of OnePager Bundle installed in a user account, there is generally no need to have OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express also installed in the same user account. Our recommendation to OnePager Bundle users, therefore, is to avoid having OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express installed in the same user account along with OnePager Bundle.

There are, however, possible situations where a user account needs to retain OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express but also needs the capabilities of OnePager Bundle. For example, suppose the user account is operating with an older version of OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express but needs the latest editions of OnePager products available in OnePager Bundle. It is possible to operate within a user account with all three OnePager products if steps are taken to manage which of the products are enabled in the Add-in mode.

This article explains how to manage the Add-in modes of OnePager Pro, OnePager Express, and OnePager Bundle within the same user account.

Installing OnePager Bundle in a User Account with OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express

Suppose a user account has both OnePager Pro and OnePager Express installed in both the Add-in and Standalone modes and the need exists to install OnePager Bundle in this same user account. This can be done by simply following the installation process for OnePager Bundle as directed by the normal installation process for OnePager products.

Results from Installing OnePager Bundle with OnePager Pro and/or Express

Making the selection to launch OnePager Bundle in both the Add-in and Standalone modes as shown above produces the following results:

1) OnePager Bundle disables OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express as Add-ins to Microsoft Project and/or Microsoft Excel.
2) OnePager Bundle enables itself as an Add-in option to both Microsoft Project and/or Microsoft Excel.
3) OnePager Pro, OnePager Express, and OnePager Bundle remain enabled and available to be individually launched in Standalone mode and the desktop icons, task-bar, and Start-Menu shortcuts are all available for use.
4) Using the double-left-click method on a .TAM or .TAT file launches OnePager Bundle in the Standalone mode since the OnePager Bundle product is the last product installed.
5) If you select the Launch from my desktop only option in the Installation options form shown above, OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express are NOT disabled and remain available in Add-in mode for future use. In other words, the actions described in items 1) and 2) above are NOT taken by OnePager Bundle.

The resulting configuration of the user account based upon the actions taken in items 1) through 3) above are that OnePager Bundle is available in the Add-in and Standalone modes and OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express is available only in the Standalone mode.

The Add-in tabs are available when you launch Microsoft Project and/or Microsoft Excel but clicking the Add-in tab from either Microsoft Project or Microsoft Excel launches OnePager Bundle. Launching OnePager Pro or OnePager Express from their respective desktop icons launches OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express in their Standalone modes.

Re-Enabling OnePager Pro and/or Express in Add-in Mode

If required, it is possible to enable OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express in the Add-in mode as long as you disable OnePager Bundle in the Add-in mode in Microsoft Project and/or Microsoft Excel.

Doing this requires that you access the COM Add-ins form for Microsoft Project and/or Microsoft Excel, enable OnePager Pro and/or OnePager Express, and disable OnePager Bundle as Add-in.

For information on disabling and re-enabling OnePager Pro and OnePager Express, please see the article sections given in the table below:

When both OnePager Pro and OnePager Express are un-installed OnePager Bundle remains the only entry in the Microsoft Project and/or Microsoft Express COM Add-ins forms. However, under the scenario where OnePager Bundle has been disabled in Add-in mode, it is necessary for you to enable OnePager Bundle in both Microsoft Project and/or Microsoft Excel in order to get the Microsoft Project and/or Microsoft Excel ADD-INS tab to show on the respective tool bar ribbons.
