Hello,
I wrote a simple addin for Excel using C#. It works great on my development
machine.
However, when I installed the package to another machine, the COM addin does
not show when open excel application.
Question: What do I need to do to resolve this problem?
Thanks in advance!

If you're written it with a COM wrapper then do you need to register it
first with regsvr32.exe?

I created the project using the VS2003 wizard. It also create the
'installation' package.
I assume the install will handle those registration when running setup on
the target machine.
Now, I try regsvr32, it results error of 'No entry point'. But I used regasm
it registered fine.
Again, It still does not work on the target machine.
(The addin project is to add a button to the Excel toolbar)
Any other advice?
Thanks

Installation project generated by VS only registers your add-in as a COM
object. It does not add necessary entries to the Excel's registry. On your
development machine that was done by VS wizard rather than by setup project:
that is why your add-in works on your dev PC.

I would like to Write an Excel Addin like the Outlook Addin in the COM
samples but i am stuck since after examining the windows registry,
there is no Excel addin Key.
The application would utilise interface IDTExtensibility2 to create
buttons and menus on excel which will be hooked up to perform certain
functions.
How can i go about doing this?

I created a COM AddIn for Word that performs the functions
that it needs to, but I needed to add the ability for the
toolbar created by the COM AddIn to remember it's last
position and whether it was docked or not. I added the

with an error, "Run-time exception thrown :
System.IO.IOException - Bad file name or number."

I've been working on an Addin for Outlook in C#. It hasn't been long now,

Suddenly though, running my project in Debug launches Outlook as specified,

If I create a new Addin program from scratch, e.g. AddIn1, it loads up fine

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
