Default AddIn Functions Have File Path and #NAME? Error

Hello,

How do I get Excel 2007 to drop the file path on formulas with Excel addin
functions in them?

I've just upgraded from Office 2003 to 2007 on XP and am having some trouble
with my Excel addin workbook functions. There are a number of addins that
are kept in a directory on the computer, C:\ExcelAddins. They are updated
from time to time and so everyone has them in this directory on there
computer so IT can upload updates. After the Office 2007 upgrade I added
all these addins to Excel 2007. In 2003 I would be able to access the addin
functions by typing in the name and parameters in a cell like so;

=CustomFunction1(A1,A2)

However, now when I open Excel files all the addin functions have the #NAME?
error and the functions look like this;

='C:\ExcelAddins\FunctionSet1.xla'!CustomFunction1 (A1,A2)

If I remove the file path and ! from the formula the function calculates
correctly. However, I have hundreds of Excel files with hundreds (some
thousands) of the custom formulas in them from the collection of Excel
addins. I can't edit every formula in every file.

How do I get Excel 2007 to drop the file path on formulas with Excel addin
functions in them? Please help me.

Thank you,

E
