I have turbo delphi professional, Add-in Express 2007 for VCL build 383
I open the MyExcelAutomationAddin1 demonstration project.
Aside from highlighting .Value of range as undeclared, all seems ok.
I open the type library and register the project.

I get a successfully registered active x server dialog box

I open excel 2002
under tools com add ins I can see coMyExcelAutomationAddin1

Load behaviour - load at startup.

I put =MyFunc(D6) in a cell (D6 contains the value 2) and the cell displays
#NAME?

Macro security I have set at low and trust all installed add ins and templates.

I have rebooted the computer but get exactly the same behaviour.

If I open the dll with the delphi type library editor I can see the function. I've not edited the file.

What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.
Kind Regards, John.

Hi John,

I have just rebuilt and tested the sample using Turbo Delphi Pro and MS Office 2002. Works fine for me. Please check the Tools -> Add-Ins... dialog box (not COM Add-ins). Do you see your add-in there? Is it checked?
