Office 365 - Data Types missing?
Paid Office 365
I'm trying to create a stock tracking list. The instructions: 1. Vertically enter several stock symbols - did that. 2. Select the stock symbols - did that. 3. Click Data on the ribbon - did that. 4. In the Data Types ribbon you'll either find the icon for Stocks (to click) or you'll need to click open data types and then click stocks - Nope - Nada to 'Data Types' anywhere whether a ribbon section name or as an icon under either Data or Insert. Where? |

I'm stuck at adding Data Types to the ribbon. It looks as if there are two problems:
1. Despite my opening the Customize Ribbon and clicking on the target 'Data', on the actual ribbon, Data Type is placed at the end AND there are no actionable links within to activate Stocks. 2. Again, Data Types is not on my ribbon under Data. BUT, as you can see, the Customize Ribbon target shows that Data Types *is under Data on my ribbon? Attached screen shots should help explain. Mark |

I Reset the ribbon and tried fresh. I may have found at least part of the problem.
When I clicked on (left panel) Data Types this time then clicked Add I received the attached message. The same message I'd received earlier. And earlier I then clicked Groups which is why (I think) I ended up with a non-functioning Data Types at the end of the ribbon. I also tried clicking New Tab and that hadn't worked either. Does the error message provide the information needed to get this thing working? |

If no one has a further suggestion, I'm going to forget this condition for a while. I just took a look at my backup laptop running Win10 vs. this machine Win11 and using the same 365.
Data Types is on the ribbon where it's supposed to be and so is the Stocks icon. |

Ah! Success. I figured out the problem. For the Stock feature to work, the file must be xlsx and not xls. I've reset the Excel default extension both computers.
