Add-in disappeared
 
Hi All,
I got a fabulous add-in that I placed on my c drive. Because work is
replacing my computer, I moved everything from my c drive to my p drive for
safe keeping.

I then went and used tools/addins and browsed for the new location of the
add-in. The problem is, everytime I open excel again, it says it can't find
it on my c drive. How do I make it always look on my P drive? I'm using
Excel 2000.

Thanks.

Jim Rech

If it's listed twice in the add-ins list uncheck the one pointing to the C:
drive.

I tried browsing for an add-in on the P: drive with Excel 2000 and Excel
found and loaded it with no problem when it was restarted.

Thanks Jim,

I found I had to uncheck the addin, then close excel, re-open it making sure
it didn't ask to go to C drive, re-browse for the add-in close excel again
and then re-open it to make sure it's looking in the right place. I thought
I'd already done this, but obviously not.
