    Yes...any excel sheet behaves like a excel template...only thing is give extension of excel as .xls(instead of 2016 excel extension .xlsx)

    Note: TBAddInSetup is for Microsoft Word and ETBAddInSetup is for Excel.

    run ETBAddInSetup ,

    Important note:

    For MS Office 2013, you will need to install BI Publisher Desktop 12c.

    open excel , Got to file -> options >add -ins -? select disable items in MANAGE drop down and click go , if BIP add in is there ,then enable , Thanks
