Trouble installing QuantLibXL

[Bob Sameth]

Hi all,

    I’m trying to learn about Quantlib by doing a little project in Excel.  The instructions at http://quantlib.org/quantlibxl/installation.html say this:

Download QuantLibXL-bin-1.2.0.exe from the Downloads page.

Run the installer to install QuantLibXL to your system.

Has anyone successfully done this recently?  What I find on the Downloads page is a zip file.  Inside the zip file, which file is the Install file that I am supposed to run???  The contents of the zip file looks more like cpp source code rather than an installable Excel add-in.

What don’t I understand?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Bob

Oops, I think sourceforge shifted things around, making those
instructions less clear than they once were.  I will fix the
documentation.

In the meantime please try this link:

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/quantlib/QuantLibXL-bin-1.2.0.exe

Kind Regards,
Eric
