Get Started Tab in Excel 2007
 

I downloaded this comm add-in and would like to remove it. When I attempt to
do so, I receive an error that it cannot be removed. Anyone have a
suggestion? Thanks.

Roger,

That's when I get the message that it cannot remove it. Mesasage: "The
connected state of Office Add-ins registerer in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE cannot be
changed"

DOes that mean that I need to disconnect from the Internet to remove it?
Thanks.

Hi Bill

I don't know why that didn't work for you, it worked find for me.
If you are comfortable with editing the Registry, close Excel then you
could use
StartRunRegedit
HKEY_Current_UserSoftware MicrosoftOffice 12.0ExcelOptions
Look through the keys set as OPEN, OPEN1 etc.
One of them will have the value set to open that COM add-in.
Right click on the appropriate key and click DELETE.
Close Regedit.

When you next open Excel, that tab should have disappeared..
