Download and Install
The J-Walk Enhanced Data Form v3 is a standard Excel add-in file. It does not use any custom DLLs, and it makes no changes to your system. In other words, it was designed to be as generic and problem-free as possible.
- Note: You will be downloading a compressed ZIP file. This file contains both sub-versions of the Enhanced Data Form (dataform3.xla and dataform3.xlam). If you use Excel 2007, make sure that you install the *.xlam add-in. Otherwise, install the *.xla add-in.
