By default, Excel does not install the Analysis Toolpack to the Data menu. This can be fixed easily with the add-in manager, that is found in the File menu.

Add-ins for Excel
Even more complex features can be added to Excel with the use of add-ins. Some are provided with Excel but not installed, so if you have a new copy of Excel, you will have to learn a little about add-ins. There are also commercial extentions, and one that is used at the Goizueta Business School is the Decision Tools Suite from Palisades Software. This add-in provides a number of very useful tools (optimization, simulation), but is not offered in a version compatible with Mac OS/X.
