Hi,
We have an add-in that works fine in straight windows environment. But when installed via Terminal Services Administrator user, and start Excel 2003, Excel throughs a GPF and closes.
The install registers the add-in DLL using Regsvr32 - is there anything else we should be doing or looking out for
Regards

Hi Simon,
What Windows Server version do you use? Did you set the RegisterForAllUsers property to true? Do you have the OnAddInInitialize or OnAddInStartupComplete event handlers?

Hi Dmitry:
It is a Windows 2000 Advanced server machine running as an application server
RegisterForAllUsers is false - which could be the problem?
And the OnAddinStartupComplete - event handler is
contains - which basically validates an authorisation key that they enter in the screen - we don't show the form as that causes problems in all windows and excel formats
frmAbout := TfrmAbout.Create(nil);
try
frmAbout.FAuto := true;
frmAbout.OnPaint := nil;
frmAbout.FormShow(self);
finally
try
paxcel05bar.Controls[6].Caption := 'PaXcel '+FrmAbout.msg;
except;
end;
frmAbout.Free;
frmAbout := nil;
end;
Many thanks for your help
Simon

Hi Simon,
Unfortunately at the moment we don't have Windows 2000 Advanced Server installed, but I have just tested a simple Excel add-in with Windows 2003 Standard Server with SP1 and all works. Can you debug your add-in on that problem PC? Can you try to create and install a simple add-in on that PC and see the results? BTW, in my previous post I forgot to ask you what Add-in Express version you use?
