XLL projects created by the XLL+ AppWizard have dependencies on other DLLs as listed below. Each of these DLLs must be present on a user's machine in order for the XLL to load successfully.
If a required DLL is not found when an XLL is opened, the user will get an error message such as "This file is not in a recognizable format".
A list of all DLLs required by a XLL can be displayed using the dependency walker tool (www.dependencywalker.com).
XLCALL32.DLL is installed as part of Excel. It it is usually located in the same directory as the executable file EXCEL.EXE. You should not install this file yourself.
