avi laid this down on his screen :
Hello, I'm looking for some Robust Excel addin installation(and uninstallation) through vba code or approach All the approaches until now seem to present some problem Best regards Avi What are you trying to accomplish? If simply looking for a way to load/unload an addin that is not a member of the addins collection then the Open/Close methods of the workbooks collection should suffice. Otherwise, the Installed property of the addins collection can be toggle True/False if the addin is already a member of the collection. If you're trying to figure out how to distribute an addin so it's automagically installed on the remote machine then you need to query Registry keys and write appropriate keys for each installed version of Excel. An installation app can do this no problem. I have VB6 code that removes installed addins and the files belonging to them (works like Remove Program in Control Panel) that I suppose could also be configured to install addins, but I'm not sure about that as I've never tried because I use a installation app. -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc |

Hi,
You may want to take a look at 'addinloader' by Charles Williams' Decision Models. Works fine for me. http://www.decisionmodels.com/Downloads/AddLoaderV2.zip Regards, Poniente On 29 jul, 06:39, avi wrote: Hello, I'm looking for some Robust Excel addin installation(and uninstallation) through vba code or approach All the approaches until now seem to present some problem Best regards Avi |

Poniente formulated the question :
Hi, You may want to take a look at 'addinloader' by Charles Williams' Decision Models. Works fine for me. http://www.decisionmodels.com/Downloads/AddLoaderV2.zip Nice utility! I clearly see where this would be beneficial in a corporate environment. Not sure, though, that it offers much more than what's doable via the Addins Manager dialog. Ok, the list of addins 'allowed' is one way to control which ones users can load, but a simple open password would service the same need in most cases. Still, I do like the concept! Very nicely done...! -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org ClassicVB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc |

I'd recommend the Addin loader from Decision models.
I have a version adapted for Xl2007/10 which I can email to you. |
