The latest version of OAK, version 5.6.006, released on the 3rd of February 2023, is a major update to version 5.

Following our commitment to innovate and develop our offering to customers we are pleased to announce that this update brings you two brand-new tools: ‘Review’ and ‘Trace Dependents’.

The Review tool is a tool for running and keeping internal reviews of a spreadsheet within the spreadsheet.

It works by storing ‘issues’ information on the ‘Alt Text’ of shapes in the workbook. All ‘issues’ can be exported to a report worksheet and re-imported as desired. They can be edited and reported on this worksheet or edited directly with the review tools.

There are plenty more improvements and fixes to OAK:

• Added new ‘Insights’ sheet to OAK map
• Added pruning for new Excel 365 functions
• Summary and Compare report books also include RC addresses
• OAK Reconstruct & Formula Explorer support 3D formulas
• Formula Explorer and pruner support @ symbols
• Redesigned Pruner UI
• Redesigned convert references UI
• Formula explorer now has guidelines and the triangle colors can be customized
• Login fail error message is now ‘copyable’
• Fixed ‘stop running this script’ issue with custom task panes
• Fixed some language issues with the Formula Explorer
• Fixed issue where unchecking all sheets on a custom task pane would automatically reselect them
• Removed Formula Walker tool

There is a detailed version history of OAK in the online documentation.
