Hi all,
A button on my form opens Word and loads a Word template.
I only want my add-in to be loaded when I click that button, not everytime I open Word.
I've looked at the add-in properties and changed the LoadBehavior to "Connected;LoadOnDemand".
Is this a good start?
(btw Is it automatically unloaded when i close my Word instance ?)
Other issue, i'm using Word 2007 so i've got an Add-In ribbon.
But there's always a Save button on it.
And when i open Word and click that button, my add-in is loaded.
Is this normal behavior?

Hi Ben.

No, I would advise you to use the 'ConnectFirstTime' mode so that the add-in can create all UI at startup. Moreover you will have to set the
'!<Add-in ProgID>' parameter to the 'OnAction' property of your button(s) in the AddinStartupComplete event handler. It will allow the host application to load the add-in on demand when the button is clicked.
(btw Is it automatically unloaded when i close my Word instance ?)
I think no.

Is the Save button built-in Ribbon control?

Ben, did you add this button using the ADXBuiltInControl component? |

Yeah i guess it was added at a certain point, but now it isn't a part of my add-in no more.
So why is it still showing ? |

It is still shown because the ADXBuiltInControl works incorrectly in Office 2007. The control still has the OnAction property set to the
'!<Add-in ProgID>' value that refers to your add-in.
Please do the following:
1. Add a new ADXCommandBar component to the addinmodule.
2. Set the CommandBarName property to "Menu Bar".
3. Set the UseForRibbon property to true.
4. Add the following code to the AddinStartupComplete event handler:
(adxCommandBar1.CommandBarObj as Microsoft.Office.Core.CommandBar).Reset();
5. Rebuild the project and start Word. The Add-ins tab should desappear.

Oops, it seems like i posted in the wrong subforum :(
While using the search option i stranded in the wrong one...
So this topic actually belongs in the ".NET Products Forum"
Could you provide me with the correct line of code to add in the AddinStartupComplete event handler? (VB.NET)
Sorry for the trouble and al your help.

Sergey, it doesn't seem to do the trick :(
I also tried by creating a whole new project with just that Commandbar with the reset() function. |

Ben, to remove the control you should reset the command bar that you used in the CommandBar property of the ADXBuiltInControl component. |
