* Dynamic Templates have buttons on the Excel Worksheet which do not function on Mac. Several Data-Driven Tools (those which manipulate data which has been entered on the Datasheet) also have output features which rely on on-worksheet buttons that do not function on Mac.
System Requirements
QETools v11 is supported on Windows-based computers through Windows 7 and Excel 2011 (32- and 64-bit systems). While it is expected that QETools will work on upcoming releases of Windows and Office, there may be minor issues which need addressing. Please provide feedback regarding any specific issues and we will work to fix them. * There has been some feedback that QETools runs on Mac with Parallels (Windows emulation software). However, the functionality of Mac-based Excel lags Windows versions meaning that some tools may not work.
