loading com addins with automation
 

Can anybody tell me how to load COM addins in Excel using automation scripts?
Several posts show how to load xla addins, but this solution does not work

set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
xlApp.Application.visible = true
xlApp.workbooks.open "somefile.xls"
.... Code to load MyComAddin.dll
