.xla removal
With Excel closed, locate the add-in by searching for the add-in name or by
searching *.xla. Delete or move the add-in after you find it. Open Excel. You will receive a message stating that the add-in can not be found and would you like to remove it. Choose to remove it.

If it is a true add-in, it will be an .xla file. Check in Excel: Tools,
Add-Ins and see what Add-Ins are checkmarked. If any are checkmarked, that means they are loaded otherwise you would receive an error message, and thus the associated .xla file must exist on your computer somewhere. Be sure and search all hidden files and folders. Typically, they are installed, or stored, in the following folder: C\Documents and Settings\Alan\Application Data\Microsoft\AddIns (Change "Alan" to your Username) Regards, Alan "Coza" wrote in message ...

.xla removal
Do not delete any .xla files without first unchecking them in Tools | Add-ins. In fact, unchecking should remove them from the VBE. -- Jim Cone San Francisco, USA http://www.realezsites.com/bus/primitivesoftware "Coza" wrote in message ... Thanks for the reply.

If you are using XL2007 anything is possible - I do not use it. The add-in Manager is available in the VBE. That is not what you should be checking. Instead leave the VBE and go to where you can see a worksheet and on the Tools menu select add-ins...

.xla removal
My earlier post directed you to the appropriate Add-In Manager. If it was
loaded in the VBE as you say, then it does exist as an .xla file on your computer. Your .xla search, if done correctly, should have found it. It doesn't matter one way or the other if you move or delete the Add-In while it is checked or unchecked. Leaving it checked only requires the user to click one extra error message OK button when Excel opens and tries to load the Add-In. You then open the Add-In Manager, try and uncheck the Add-In and you will get another error message from Excel saying the Add-In does not exist and would you like to remove it from the Add-In Manger list. Typically, when someone wants to remove an Add-In, they want it to be removed from the Excel Add-In Manager list also and it can be done whether checked or not. Glad you got it worked out.

The Add-ins displayed in Excel's Tools | Add-ins menu and those in the Add-in Manager in the VBE are not the same. Deleting or moving an .xla will usually leave inoperative menu items in place if the add-in is not unchecked first. You had better be damn sure before you tell someone to delete a file. -- Jim Cone San Francisco, USA http://www.realezsites.com/bus/primitivesoftware "R1C1" wrote in message ...
