Hi Mark,

The information displayed by the Tools Add-Ins dialog is read from the
Excel workbook properties. Turn the IsAddIn property of your XLA to False so
you can see the workbook. In the Excel user interface choose File
Properties from the menu to get the Properties dialog.

On the Summary tab of the Properties dialog the Title entry is used as
the list entry for your add-in in the Add-Ins dialog list and the Comments
entry is displayed at the bottom of the Add-Ins dialog when you select the
entry for your add-in from the list.

Hello.

When you select a seeded Add-in, such as the Analysis ToolPak - VBA, the
frame at the bottom shows the Add-In's name as it's title, and offers a
description... in this case, "VBA functions for Analysis toolPak".

How do you put that description in for a custom Add-In?

I've tried put something in the Tools - VBA Project Properties - Project
Description text box, but apparently that's not the right place.

Thanks,
Mark
