After entering the name the installation will copy the files to that directory and create the program group. A shortcut key will be placed on the desktop. Each spreadsheet contains an example from your textbook for which you may change the data in order to see how the changes will affect the answers. Wherever possible, we have provided a graph. Each Active Model spreadsheet contains a RESET button to easily enable you to restore the original data. In addition, each spreadsheet contains a QUESTION button which will lead you through a series of questions to help you to better learn the relationship among the parameters of the problem. Please note that every time you change questions the data will automatically reset to the original parameters.
After getting to the last question, a PRINT option is enabled so that you will have a record of your answers for yourself or for your instructor. Alternatively, you may use the DISPLAY button to see the Questions and Answers on a spreadsheet. A detailed explanation of the question form is on the question form sheet. The spreadsheets are not locked which means that you may enter or change values in any cell. As a rule, only the cells shaded in green should be changed. In general, the cells may be changed directly or with the scrollbar. As a rule, you should NOT change cells that are shaded in red.
Cells shaded in yellow may be changed but you will be deleting a formula. Most scrollbars operate in the same fashion.
Clicking on the arrows will generate small changes while clicking on the bar will generate large changes. Experiment with the scroll bar if you need help. For several of the modules you will be asked to read graphs.
Move the mouse along the graph in order to have Excel display the value. If you need practice see the graph sheet. Excel's formula bar is automatically hidden by Active Models. To see it use View, Formula Bar from the Excel menu. In addition, Active Models will automatically remove the gridlines and row and column labels. To restore them use the View tab from Tools, Options.
The intention is NOT to provide these sheets as solvers but many of these sheets can be used in that way. However, the graphs have been scaled according to the numbers being demonstrated. Thus, changing the basic data may lead to a nonreadable graph. If you want an Excel solver then you should use Excel OM on this CD.
