I believe you will need Excel.exe installed on your machine in order to use Excel dependent workflows. You can also try creating an environment variable (Control Panel -&gt; System -&gt; Advanced System Settings -&gt; Environment Variables -&gt; create "UseLibXL" and set it to 1). Then you will not need Excel.exe installed on your machine.</P> <P>Many thanks!</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Sat, 06 Oct 2018 16:00:48 GMT johnsonshiue 2018-10-06T16:00:48Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/parameters-loading-problem/m-p/8317046#M210988 <P>I am working on Inventor 2018 and Libre Office Calc for about half year and I made some projects so far. I only had to save parameters as .xlsx files and Inventor has no problem reading them. But when I tried to make a new project after longer break I got surprised. When I try to load a parameter file it only says "embedding 1" instead of giving me full parameter list and nothing happens. I tried to create parameters in Excel Online but this also doesn't work. Please help me with it if someone can.</P> Sat, 06 Oct 2018 09:45:26 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/parameters-loading-problem/m-p/8317046#M210988 Anonymous 2018-10-06T09:45:26Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/parameters-loading-problem/m-p/8317355#M210989 <P>Hi!
