I'm using Add-in Express, VCL Editon and Delphi 7. Installed my Registration Code correctly and I"m able to compile/run add-ons for Outlook. When I try to use any of the dll's (I tried at least 5 different samples) in a production pc I get the following errror:
"path-to-my-dll\my.dll is not a valid Office Add-in".
Bad instalation maybe?
Any help appreciated.

Hi Leon,

Try to register the samples using the regsvr32.exe system utility. What will happen in this case?

Thanks for your quick reply.

Using my developer pc using regsvr32 I get DllRegisterServer in xxx.dll succeeded.

Same procedure using a production pc (Windows XP) I get a pop up windows saying loadlibrary ("xxx.dll") failed - the specified module could not be found.

I tried with a Pc in my office and also at a remote office pc.
Thanks.

After many attemps, looks like my Delphi 7 instalation is "bad". I download Delphi 2006 Tial and works just fine. :o

Hi Leon,

I don't think your Delphi 7 installation is "bad". Make sure the "Build with runtime packages" checkbox is not checked. Also you can use the tdump.exe tool for checking the external DLLs/BPLs needed for your library.
