Default Deployment of Excel addin (.xla file)

Hello,

I need a process to install updated addin files (about 5 of them ) from
server to local machine each time excel ( version 2003) is started. This is
for about 30 users.

Objective is to have addin files from the server always copied to excel
start up path so that each user has the latest addin on their machine. if the
copying process fails then roll back the entire copy.

I am thinking of running a batch file (.BAT) during Excel start up ( I have
seen this process in place) but does not know how to start a batch file from
excel start up such that it copies all the addins and each addin should load
during same start up creating custom menus.

Any suggestions /alternate solutions are welcome.

Thanks in advance

Nayan
