Installing OnePager Express Version 7.0

1) Installation of OnePager Express (OPX) for version 7.0 remains the same as previous versions. The process is repeated there for your convenience.

2) 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. (See: Getting Started with OnePager Express Desktop 3.0.2.2-61 for more some further details in the context of version 7.0)

Smart Installer

1) The OPX installer comes in two varieties:

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

b) a .ZIP file for IT Professionals that are installing OPX into a managed network environment.

2) 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.

3) 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.

4) Finally, the smart installer provides 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.

5) 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

6) OPX version 7.0 requires that the users have installed Microsoft .NET version 4.5 Full or later on their computer.
