Subscript error in 2007 when testing if Addin is installed
In Office 2007, I'm using the following function to determine whether an
Add-in is installed, but if the answer is "False", rather than false, I get "Subscript out of range" error. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? How can I get this to run right? Private Function AddInInstalled(argName As String) As Boolean 'return true if an addin is installed: If AddIns(argName).Installed = True Then AddInInstalled = True Else AddInInstalled = False End If End Function Thanks in advance... |

Subscript error in 2007 when testing if Addin is installed
Hi Bernie and thanks.
That is the line where the error occurs, however your suggestion still fails to prevent a subscript error if a "False" reply is generated... Any other suggestions?

Subscript error in 2007 when testing if Addin is installed
This worked ok in xl2003:
Option Explicit Private Function AddInInstalled(argName As String) As Boolean AddInInstalled = False On Error Resume Next AddInInstalled = CBool(Application.AddIns(argName).Installed) On Error GoTo 0 End Function Sub testme() MsgBox AddInInstalled("analysis toolpak") MsgBox AddInInstalled("qwer") End Sub XP wrote: In Office 2007, I'm using the following function to determine whether an Add-in is installed, but if the answer is "False", rather than false, I get "Subscript out of range" error.

Try it with an On Error trap control:
Sub TryNow() MsgBox AddInInstalled("Analysis Toolpak") MsgBox AddInInstalled("Fred") End Sub Private Function AddInInstalled(argName As String) As Boolean 'return true if an addin is installed: Dim myName As String AddInInstalled = False On Error GoTo NotInstalled myName = AddIns(argName).Name AddInInstalled = AddIns(argName).Installed NotInstalled: End Function HTH, Bernie MS Excel MVP "XP" wrote in message ...

Subscript error in 2007 when testing if Addin is installed
Thanks Dave and Bernie,
After trial and error, I also came up with something that works, FYI: Private Function AddInInstalled(argAddInTitle As String) As Boolean 'return true if an addin is installed: On Error GoTo xERR If AddIns(argAddInTitle).Installed = True Then AddInInstalled = True Exit Function xERR: AddInInstalled = False End Function Thanks for your assistance.
