Abstract
Once RExcel has been installed on your computer (see Appendix A for details), it can be started by clicking the RExcel with RCommander or RExcel2007 with RCommander icon. The icon is initially placed on your Desktop by the RExcelInstaller. It may have been copied or moved by your lab manager to your Start menu, or to a menureached from the Start menu. It is possible to start Excel first and then start R and Rcmdr from the RExcel menu. Most of our illustrations show screenshots from Excel 2007 on Windows. Everything works with Excel 2003 or Excel 2002 on Windows, with only minor differences in the appearance of the menus.
