Uninstalling an add-in
Hello to all,
I have written a macro for filtering a group of data based on the standard deviation of different "segments" of the data. Now I have written a little installation macro that automatically includes my xla file as an addin and insert a menu command in the filter menu. I have also written an uninstall macro that deletes the menu command. Everything is working fine. The only problem is to uninstall the add-in. I use the line that appears when I record the unchecking of my add-in, namely: AddIns("Fil-Std").Installed = False However, that doesn't seem to work properly. If, for instance, I uninstall the macro, copy the xla file to a different directory and install it again. I get a message error every time I open Excel stating that it can't find the file in the old directory. I have the same problem when I uncheck the add-in manually. It seems that Excel (I use Office XP) records the location of the add-ins and unchecking them doesn't erase it. On some occasions I have even got a message asking whether I want to erase the add-in from the add-in list (as opposed to just uncheck it) and I still got the error the next time I opened Excel. My question is: How can I get Excel to forget about the add-in so I can install it anew in a different directory? Thank you in advance Francisco Tornay |
