Hi,

We have installed our add-in on many computers with success.
Unfortunately one of our users isn't able to install the add-in properly.

His environment looks like this:
Windows XP, Outlook 2003, .Net Framework 1.1,
Office 2003 PIA isn?Â?Ð?ét installed on client machine (I use local reference to them, they are included into the .msi)

Here is the error we get in event viewer:

The description for Event ID ( 11001 ) in Source ( MsiInstaller ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Product: AnaAddInSetup -- Error 1001. An exception occurred in the OnAfterInstall event handler of AddinExpress.Install.ADXProjectInstaller. --> An error occurred during the add-in registration process., (NULL), (NULL), (NULL).

Could you point me what should I look at first?
Do we need to install .Net 1.1 before Outlook 2003 or vice versa?

Hi Pascal.

Does the client's PC have the latest updates for Windows and MS Office installed yet?

Pascal, please check if you've included all dependent assemblies in the setup project.

Am I supposed to deploy all theses DLLs in the GAC?

- Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll
- Microsoft.Vbe.Interop.dll
- office.dll
- stdole.dll
- Extensibility.dll (this one is already set to be deployed to the GAC)

Hi Pascal.

Actually it is enought to put all of these dlls to the add-in application directory. Did you add any code to the add-in constructor?
