I had a hard time finding the tool menu when trying to add the toolpack to Excel. After looking and researching Excel I finally figured out how to add the toolpack menu. I clicked on file and scrolled down to the option, the menu came up and Add-In was one that was offered. After clicking on Add-In, I had to click on the inactive application menu to make the toolpack active.

This assignment reflects Standard 5 because because of the Professional Growth of using Excel to keep record of grades and other data inside the classroom.
