  2. After Smart View is installed, and before you start Microsoft Excel, Word, or PowerPoint, ensure that you are logged in to your computer with your own user name.

    Note:

    You must be logged in with your own user name, not an administrator's or anyone else's user name, in order to be able to correctly install and use the extension for Oracle Analytics Cloud.

    Note:

    To install the extension for Oracle Analytics Cloud, you can start Excel, Word, or PowerPoint; the extension installation is not launched from Outlook.
