Managing add-ins via the registry
We copy a number of add-ins to users machines and edit the registry to make
them active/inactive. ie in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\E xcel\Add-in Manager\ and OPEN, OPEN1, OPEN2 etc. in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\O ptions\ This works fine. Until the first time someone edits their add-ins manually. Without making any changes clicking on 'OK' on the add-in popup rearranges the OPEN# string values causing gaps to appear in the numbering and the add-ins after the gap do not load next time Excel is open. This rectifies itself if one clicks on 'OK' in the options form. i.e the OPEN# string values rearrange themselves again without gaps. Can anyone shed any light on this? I suspect that excel is storing the add-ins information elsewhere. |
