Hi, we are using Delphi 2009 and Add-In-Express 2009.

Our plugin installer program uses the "regsvr32" command with the plugin DLL name passed in.

Our plugin, in the Delphi designer, has the "RegisterForAllUsers" property set to True, so the plugin registers and shows up in the Outlook command bar for all users of the Windows machine.

Our question is: Is it possible to install/register the plugin for a specific user group on the Windows machine?

Thank you

Hi Andrei,

Office allows registering COM add-ins on the per-user and per-machine basis only. I believe you can use the info we've provided in http://www.add-in-express.com/creating-addins-blog/2009/01/25/automatic-installation-windows-group-policy/ to implement the required deployment schema.
