Everything was fine up through all the betas and RCs but suddenly, after installing the final version of IE7, I can no longer install my office Add-ins.
My install code
function RegisterOfficeAddin:Boolean;
var
lHandle:THandle;
// ipp procedures
lDllRegisterServer:function:HResult; stdcall;
lError:HResult;
function GetAddInPath:String;
var
lReg:TRegistry;
lKey:String;
begin
result := '';
lReg:=TRegistry.create;
try
lReg.RootKey := HKEY_CURRENT_USER;
lKey := '\SOFTWARE\'+COMPANY_NAME+'\' + PRODUCT_NAME_SHORT + '\WebConferencingAddIn';
if lReg.OpenKey(lKey, False) then
result := lReg.ReadString('Path') + '\';
finally
lReg.Free;
end;
end;
begin
result := True;
lHandle:=LoadLibrary(PAnsiChar(GetAddInPath + WEBCONFERENCINGADDIN_DLL));
if lHandle<>0 then
begin
try
@lDllRegisterServer:=GetProcAddress(lHandle,'DllRegisterServer');
if @lDllRegisterServer <> nil then
begin
lError := lDllRegisterServer;
codesite.send('lError',lError);
result := (lError = S_OK);
end;
finally
FreeLibrary(lHandle);
end;
end;
end;
Where WEBCONFERENCINGADDIN_DLL is my DLL.
Like I said this all worked up until the release version of IE7.
Sorry if this is already covered somewhere else. I did try finding somehing but must have missed it.

Hi Allen,
We have never had any problems or bug reports related to IE7. Nevertheless, I will try to test the issue. Can you please give more details:
- Is the install code executed in a standalone application?
- What Delphi version do you use?
- What host applications does your add-in support?

Hi Dmitry
>>- Is the install code executed in a standalone application?
It's intalled from a tray application that does many configuration tasks. Amoung these tasks is allowing the user to select which installed office apps to install the add-ins into.
- What Delphi version do you use?
Delph BDS 2006 w/Update 2. We are also using the latest Add-in express VC>
- What host applications does your add-in support?
Outlook, word, excell, PP.

Sorry, false alarm. Turns out that some custom COM initialization code stepped on registration. This code worked fine prior to IE7. Anyway, it was in our code not yours. |
