For Smart View Administrators

After Oracle Smart View for Office installation, the Oracle BI EE extension is installed automatically the first time an Office application is launched. You must ensure that the intended end user is logged in to Windows before Office is launched.

Or, you can control how your Smart View end users install the Oracle BI EE extension via the Extensions page of the Smart View Options dialog box. See "Administering Extension Installations and Updates" in the Oracle Smart View for Office Installation and Configuration Guide for more information on setting up automatic or manual installations.

If you choose to set up automatic or manual installations, you should install Smart View in a test environment first, then refer to the UpdateList.xml file, found in the extensions folder of your Smart View installation. Use the entry in this file as a guideline for the Oracle BI EE entry you will add to the UpdateList.xml file, as described in "Configuring Manual Extension Updates" in the Oracle Smart View for Office Installation and Configuration Guide.
