Hello,

When you click Insert Map, it automatically is placed in the upper left corner of your spreadsheet. It may be that you are at a different location in your spreadsheet and the map is not visible when it has been added.

Also, what version of Esri Maps for Office are you using? Are you using version 1.0? Or the beta version?

The same issue is occuring in the test version of Esri for Office which I have installed. It works fine in powerpOint, however when clicked on Insert Map in Excel it does not respond or do anything.
I am running on Windows 7 and Office 2010.
Any suggestions.

Same issue. Powerpoint works fine, Excel not.
I downloaded and installed "EsriMapsForOffice_x86_1.1_en".

Hi Taro,

Are you an administrator of the computer?  If you are, then try removing the add-in and reinstalling it.  I did this when I had an issue selecting features. A complete removal and reinstall fix the issue.

Hope this helps,
Eric

Thanks for the response. But unfortunately it didn't fix the problem (yes, I am an admin of the computer).
I installed the new version of Esri Maps for Office (EsriMapsForOffice_x86_2.0.1_en), same issue.

I have uploaded an image showing what happens when I simply click on "Insert Map", while having cell A1 selected. Notice the Error window and the formula which appears (=EMBED("WinForms.Control.Host.V3","")).
Hope I still get to test Esri Maps for Office before my ArcGIS Online Trial expires...

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Have you tried updating or reinstalling your .net framework?  There is a prerequisite for the .net framework. Just trying to think of other things you can try before your trial ends.

I tried that out. I had .net framework 4.0. Then reinstalled to 4.0 - no success. Then updated to 4.5 - also no success.

I will try using other machines.

I downloaded and installed version 2.0.2 Esri Maps for Office (before I had 2.0.1). This seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks anyway for the help 🙂
