Default Distributed excel apps with add-ins

I plan to distribute Excel apps in LAN. The apps on the file server
should be accessible from work stations. What would be the best way to
include user xla add-ins. I would prefer to store the add-ins to the
server, to enable me to update them without the trouble to reinstall
them in each workstation.

I have tested one solution, which seems to work: Each application
consists of a list of required add-ins including server path and a
routine which installs and loads them on opening, and unloads before
closing the app. Not yet tested with UNC path.

Ideas appreciated
