Can you tell how Excel is launched?
We have an Excel add-in. We would like to know if the application is started
from the menu by the user or started by another Office application. Is using the ConnectMode parameter in the OnConnection call the best way to do this? |

Hi Gail,

Note that this will only give you a definitive answer if the app was created programmatically AND is hidden. -- Regards, Jake Marx MS MVP - Excel www.longhead.com [please keep replies in the newsgroup - email address unmonitored] |

Is there a way to determine what application launched Excel?
