SYMPTOMS
When you run the Template Wizard in Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition, you can create only a database in a Microsoft Excel Workbook. Other file formats are not supported.



STATUS
This behavior is by design of Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition.



MORE INFORMATION
To run the Template Wizard in Microsoft Excel, click Template Wizard on the Data menu. In step 2 of the wizard, a list box allows you to select the kind of database you want the wizard to create.

In Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition, the list box contains only the following file format:

Microsoft Excel Workbook

In Microsoft Excel 97 for Windows, the list box contains additional formats:

Microsoft Excel Workbook

Access Database

dBASE III Database

dBASE IV Database

FoxPro 2.0 Database

FoxPro 2.5 Database

It is not possible for the Template Wizard to use these additional formats in Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition.
