Will 3rd Party Add-ins work in Excel 04?

Not to be sarcastic, but the best source on that should be the developer of
he add-in. They should be able to confirm compatibility or perhaps offer an
alternative version of their product that does work on a Mac.

I am new to Office Mac 04. Is it the case that it does not operate as a
regular Windows Excel would operate with add-ins?

Add-ins need to be developed specifically for the Office Mac Excel?

Much appreciated.

The link does not say anything about Macintosh. If the add-in is written in
VBA, it might work, but probably not if the author did not consider the
possibility of running on the Mac.

What does " does not operate as a regular Windows Excel would operate with
add-ins?" mean? Excel 204 indeed has addins, and they are loaded and work
the same as in windows. If the Add-in is written in C++ or assembler, it
will, of course, have to be recompiled to run on the Macintosh. If the
add-in call windows APIs, it will, of course not work.

Yes, Add-ins need to be developed for the Macintosh. There are ways with
certain run-time packages, depending on the compiler where the author might
make the add-in sensitive to the platform it is running on; but, yes,
Macintosh has to be taken into account.
