Getting started
The interactive spreadsheet-based models used by this course have the following requirements:
- Microsoft Windows XP (the models have not yet been tested on Microsoft Vista)
- One of the following browsers
- Firefox 2.0 or higher
- Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher
- Microsoft Excel 97 or higher
- Java 1.4.0_01 (or higher) plug-in (see Initial tasks shown below for further information)
- Verify that you have the necessary Java plug-in in order to successfully run the Equilibrium Partitioning Model
- First, try to open the model. If the model opens successfully, you should have no problem with the model working with your plug-in
- If the model does not open successfully, you may be prompted to download the Java plug-in from Sun Microsystems. Follow Sun's instructions to perform the installation. Additional Java testing and installation instructions can be found at the following web sites:
- If you have determined that you have the appropriate Java plug-in installed and the model still does not open successfully, ensure that you have Java enabled in your browser
- Enable Java in Firefox
- Enable Java in Internet Explorer
