Blocked files problem
Recently (I write this in August 2016), Microsoft has "enhanced" security and is now blocking any files that are downloaded from the internet. This means that any add-in you try to open after downloading will simply not open in Excel (without display of a warning message!). To resolve this, follow these steps:
1. Copy the add-in from the zip file to any folder
2. Right-click the xla(m) file and choose properties:
3. Click the Unblock button:

RefTreeAnalyzer Version 2.0 Build 125, Release 2018-05-02.
I am using Office 2010.
The add-in works fine on different computers that I tried, so I might have messed something up in Excel that I cannot see yet.
E.g. I switched recently the language pack but switching back didn't change anything either.
I think it is somehow related to the Ribbon. When I tried to disable all other add-ins, the Add-In Ribbon pane with some add-ins in it remained and I couldn't delete them. They were neither found in the Add-In folder (the one through the Excel / Tools/ Options / Browse function) nor could I get rid of them by deleting my entire Excel customization, i.e. by deleting in the registry the "Options" folder under: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Excel.
Deleting the entire 'Excel' folder didn't help either.
I then deleted the entries on the Add-In Ribbon pane manually with a right, but still no success.
So I've run out of options now what to try to get it back to work (other than completely resetting / repairing Office).
(The add-in actually did work on my computer a few days ago.)
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks

Download the latest version, I expect the issue will be resolved.

Can you please confirm the RefTreeAnalyser license is an subscription or perpetual license.
Comment by: Jan Karel Pieterse (6/13/2018 11:40:26 AM)
It is perpetual, but it entitles you to one year of updates. If your year has expired the tool will work but no longer receive updates.

I have been a happy customer of RTA for a while, but now need to automate running it over a large number of Excel files.
However, I found that whatever I dim the control parameter as:
Dim oControl as Object ' Variant ' iRibboncontrol
the following line will crash my Excel (2010) :
Application.Run "'reftreeanalyserxl.xlam'!rxreftreeFormulaCheckAllSheets", oControl
Any pointers?
TIA,
Tom

Excel 2016 won't crash, but returns "Unexpected error (40182)", no matter what datatype oControl is declared as.
Also tests the same with another RTA procedure:
I am trying to follow Ron de Bruin's Application.Run methodology here. Not using oControl just gives 449 "argument not optional", but at least my base syntax seems correct.

You can invoke that report using:

Is it possible, however, to turn off the alert "Timing formula calculation seems to take long, skip for worksheet", either default to yes or even skip timing for all worksheets? I have not found a setting in the PDF documentation, nor another way to suppress or OK this dialog.
Also, could you share the internal equivalents for the 2 ribbon commands rxreftreeListAllSheetStats and rxrtFormulaCheckSheetsRefs.
Thanks again, tom
