Not that what you're doing shouldn't work but when it comes to my add-ins I
don't bother with Tools, Add-ins. I just put them in my XLSTART folder
along with my Personal.xls. I've never had a problem with this as they all
get opened and the auto macros run. Fwiw.

| I use some add-ins from other users ( from net )

|
| I also just made up two add-ins myself. Works great on my computer.
| Went to install them on other computers.
| Set Macros to "medium".
| Opened add-in on other computer.
| Saved as add-in
| Check marked the new add-in
| Closed Excel
| Opened Excel - Menu item does NOT auto-load.
| OPEN .xla file and it Does add in new menu.
|
| I shortly need to send these add-ins to our international salemen, so I'm
| trying to get all the bugs out by trying installs on different computers
in
| house.
|
| Am I overlooking an installation step?
|
| Thanks in advance.
