    hi all, I am developing an excel automation addin in c# .net. I have its setup and msi too. Now, when i tried installing it on a test machine, the installation is all fine and i can also see the registry entry(of MyProject.Connect with LoadBehavior 3) being made in the hkey local machine. But, no registry entry is made in the hkey classes root!!! I am not able to find my GuidAttribute(EA0AA093-EB23-4BD5-B499-4A2D327FC4D9) in the 'hkey classes root\clsid'!!! What could be the reason for this?! Kindly help me in this regard. Any suggestions and ideas are very much thankful. Regards.

      Because you've not registered your COM object ?

        hey Graus, good to see you replying. Well, at last i figured out and it has made the registry entries in 'hkey classes root' on the test machine.. but apparently am very surprised with the fact that, though I am not able to see MySample.Connect in 'Excel--Tools--Addins', my addin is working to some extent. Actually my addin is supposed to generate a button in excel, on the addin-created CommandBar(which i call MyCommandBar). The button is showing up and all the forms resulting its click are showing up. however, the UDFs i defined in 'MySample.Connect.cs' are not being recognised!!! Why is this happening?! How am I able to see the button when there is no entry of 'MySample.Connect' in the 'Excel--Tools--Addins' list!!?? I need my UDFs to be working. Regards.
