My addin in other computers
 
I made a Addin (excel) and installed on my computer on folder
C:\Documents and Settings\MyUser\...
and I installed this addin in a lot of computers.
But when I open a file (in other computer) that uses a function from my
addin, doesn't work (problems with link)

What can I do for resolve this problem?

Have the other user load the addin and open that workbook that uses the addin.

Then tell them to use
Edit|Links|change sources.

If you want to try to eliminate this problem on future workbooks, you could move
your addin to a folder on a common network drive. The the other users to use
the UNC Path instead of the mapped drive when they do Tools|Addins (to install
the addin).

If you don't have a common network folder you can use, I'd suggest that you use
a dedicated folder on the C: (something that's always available) and use a
specific folder:

C:\RodrigosAddins

And tell everyone to create folder by that name and store the addin file in that
folder.
