Prior to this addition, Office users would have to use Office 2004 for Excel if they needed solver, defeating the purpose of having Office 2008 on the system. It is a standalone application, and you have to run it alongside Excel. There is not a way to run it from within Excel.
Solver requires Excel 12.1.2, and Mac OS X v10.4.9 or 10.5.4. It is a free download.
Solver had been left out of Office 2008 due to Visual Basic for Applications’ dependency. VBA is supposed to return to Mac Office in the next release.
