- If prompted, choose to always allow popups for this site.
- If the page does not load automatically, click the “Launch Wands” link.
- The application will start loading.
- If you see a security warning accept it and continue.
- If Excel is not running, the application will attempt to start it automatically. If you see a prompt to launch Excel then start Excel manually.
