a setup problem
-
hi all, am developing a shared addin(to excel) using visual studio in c#.net, an addin. However, my addin acts like an automation addin too and the udfs i defined in MyAddin.Connect.cs are working fine in my m/c.But, the problem is, when I installed my project by running the MyAddinSetup.exe in another machine, though all the registry entries(HKCR, HKLM) are being made, the addin is not listed in the 'Tools-->Addins-->Automation'list! and am not able to use my udfs defined in MyAddin.Connect.cs. Kindly help me in this regard. I should be able to use my udfs in the test machine. Is there a problem with the installation or am I missing any registry entries?! Regards.

Make right entries exist in registry key below "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\Addins\" Check examples of other add-ins installed on the PC. Regards, :)

hey, the entries are made perfectly fine.. my project is an excel addin(thus, entries are made in hklm\software\microsoft\office\excel\addins\) not a visual studio addin. Basically, my Connect.cs also defines some UDFs and also adds a command bar to the excel. The commandbar is being displayed properly in the test machine but the automation part i.e., the UDFs are not being recognized. What could be the reason for the automation part of my addin not to work when the com part is working fine?! Regards
