Important: Spreadsheet Inquire is available only in Excel for Windows in Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise plans and equivalent editions. Want to see what version of Office you're using?
You want to use the tools in the Spreadsheet Inquire add-in for Excel, but you don't see the Inquire tab in the Excel ribbon. You first need to turn on the Inquire add-in.
-
Select File > Options > Add-Ins.
-
Select COM Add-ins in the Manage box, and then select Go.
-
In the COM Add-Ins dialog box, check the box next to Inquire.
-
Select OK.
Note   If you don't see an entry for Inquire Add-in in the COM Add-Ins dialog box, it's because either your version of Excel doesn't include it, or your organization's system administrator has made it unavailable.
After the add-in is turned on, the Inquire tab will appear in Excel.
