Deploy Excel 2002 add-in
I have developed an add-in using Excel 2002. Some of our customers are using
older versions of Excel. Could anyone point me to references that might explain different deployment options? For example, should I ship both an Excel/97 and an Excel/2002 version of my add-in? By only using Excel/2002 can I make both versions? Where is the best place to install an Excel add-in? Any guidance appreciated. Regards, Steve |

Deploy Excel 2002 add-in
When you are ready making the Add-in open it in Excel 97
Set any missing references to the ones for Excel 97 and save the file If you run the Add-in in a newer version it will automatic use the newer reference. -- Regards Ron de Bruin (Win XP Pro SP-1 XL2002 SP-2) www.rondebruin.nl "S.

Deploy Excel 2002 add-in
Thanks for the replies...I now have somewhere to start...
Steve "Charles Williams" wrote in message ... Hi Steve, The safest method is to compile and test using Excel 97. Then test the compiled version under xl2000 and xl2002. Does not matter much which directory you install the addin into. If you do not have an install packager you will have to get each user to install using Tools--Addins--Browse hth Charles ______________________ Decision Models The Excel Calculation Site www.DecisionModels.com "S.
