When Crystal Ball opens in Microsoft Excel 2003, the following special menus are added to the standard Microsoft Excel menus:
Define menu — enables you to define and select assumptions, decision variables, forecasts, and correlations among assumptions; freezes assumptions, decision variables, and forecasts so they are not included in simulations; also lets you copy, paste and clear assumptions, decision variables, and forecasts as well as set cell preferences.
Run menu — starts, stops, continues, and resets simulations; runs simulations a step at a time; if available, starts OptQuest or Predictor; opens the Crystal Ball tools: Batch Fit, Tornado Analysis, Bootstrap, Decision Table, Scenario Analysis, 2D Simulation; saves and restores simulation results; and sets run preferences.
Analyze menu — creates and opens charts and reports; cascades and closes windows; and extracts data.
Help, then Crystal Ball menu — Opens online help for Crystal Ball; displays the following items: the About Box for Crystal Ball, Oracle Crystal Ball User's Guides and other documentation in Adobe Acrobat format, Crystal Ball examples, the Crystal Ball Welcome Screen, lets you access Crystal Ball licensing features, and more.
For more information on each command, view online help from within Crystal Ball using the Help menu or button.
