I have installed my Excel add-in on a PC and Excel shows it to be loaded (checked in the "Add-Ins" window) however when I type in my UDF in a cell it does not recognize it.
Other notes:
1. I am not an administrator on this PC, but I was able to install it without any problems.
2. I also have a COM add-in and it seems to be functioning okay - I can see its ribbon in the UI.
Any ideas on what to look at / try next?
Thanks!
Here is my adxloader.log file

Do you get #NAME in your cell where your formula should evaluate?
Thanks,
Gerry |

Yes - I get #NAME? in the cell. Help text next to it is "The formula contains unrecognized text".
Thanks. |

I sometimes get this problem, but it is intermittent. I can't reliably reproduce it, the setup probably works 95% of the time. I have an open question on this topic, but all I got was a request to send the installation logs. I haven't heard back yet.
Thanks, |

I have tried this on several PCs, even PCs with Excel 2016 and it has worked all the time. It just seems to be this machine (which is a server, but that really shouldn't make a difference should it?). It will be used interactively with a person logging into the server.
I had our system administrator log into the server (admin rights), run Excel and once again, the add-ins are loaded properly, but the UDFs are not functioning.
I did notice, however, that when I create a blank worksheet the Macro and VBA buttons are grayed out as well. Perhaps this is related. I checked my Trust Settings and they are fine, I believe.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. |

Hello Larry and Gerry,
I'm sorry for not responding earlier; yesterday was an official holiday here.
Larry,
The log files are okay. Please check if the Excel Automation add-in is mentioned on the Add-ins tab of the dialog window that you open via File | Options. Make sure that the '/R "C:\Users\sater\AppData\Local\AgVantis\QueryTool\adxloader.QueryTool.dll' registry value is actually created in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\{Excel version}.0\Excel\Options.

This may relate. Make sure VBA is enabled on that machine. I suppose Excel is installed without VBA and this causes the issue.

I haven't received an email with logs from you. Could you please resend it?

Thanks Andrei,
The registry checked out fine. I worked with this yesterday and finally got this working by having our SysAdmin reinstall Excel. This time he selected "Office Shared Features" which he must not have done the first time. After that I was able to open up Excel, the Macro/VBA buttons are enabled and my UDFs are working.
Thanks again! |

I have just opened a similar issue in the following thread:
https://www.add-in-express.com/forum/read.php?FID=5&TID=14428&MID=73904
Our issue is that a client has the Trust Center Settings / Add-ins / Require Application Add-ins to be signed by Trusted Publisher checked off. While we have the COM Add-In signed and in the Trusted Publisher store, I don't know how to do the same for the Automation Add-In, since it is registered within the COM addin to the mscoree.dll.
Is this a possible cause for your case as well? If you check off on this option, do your UDF's work?

Yes, we did try that and it did not work. Installing the "Office Shared Features" as indicated above is what got mine to start working.
Good luck with your issue. |
