doesnt work. Always greyed out. I dont know how to turn it on.
This extension is indispensible for what I do - constantly using: not only saving time, but allowing me to do things that otherwise wouldn't be possible. Excellent bang for buck!
This extension worked perfectly for the hard to get tables that my other extensions wouldn't touch. Auto-scrolling for live generation tables is a dream. I spoke with mike and he was responsive (nearly instantly). Worth the $ in my case!
