Updating a Add-In on a network
Hi
I've read couple of threads regarding this issue but I am still a bit confused. Here is the problem I have an add in that that is stored in a shared drive and which is refereneced in a spreadsheet. Many users can use it at the same time I don't want to ask the users to close down Excel before I can update the add in. I want to update(overwrite the addin) while it is in use by other users (ie loaded into Excel via a workbook that reference this addin and not open directly as a workbook). No one will open the add in directly as a workbook (ie double clicking on it from Windows Explorer or from an existing Excel using File/Open menu ). What do I need to do ? Make sure the .xla is always read only (attributes = R) ? What sequence should I follow if changes in attributes is required ? Do the changes in attribiutes have to be done programatically or can I do that for Windows explorer ? Making sure that it alway open through a workbook referencing the addin ? Help much apreciated B |
