You can find the .NET howtos section on our website this evening.
Good luck. |

Have just purchased vb .net version 2 and trying to feel around the software.
Have installed the ADX Toys .Net and Add-in works fine. But if I then uninstalled it via Control Panel -> Add/Remove Program, it shows deleted, but if I fired up EXcel again, the Add-In is still with Excel. My question is: How to delete it from Excel completely?? I'm using EXcel 10.
Any help will be very much appreciated.

Hi,
I have just tested this situation and it works fine.
I think that your problem is in Custome Actions editor of deployment project. You need to have the following settings in your Custome Actions editor:
Install
AddinExpress.MSO.dll
Commit
Rollback
AddinExpress.MSO.dll
Uninstall
AddinExpress.MSO.dll
All actions have got the CustomActionData property. Set this property to "/Addin="[TARGETDIR]\XLToys.dll" /ProgId=XLToys.AddinModule" for all actions. It is necessary to inform Add-in Express .NET which addin should be uninstalled. |

OK got to Customized Actions, all setting suggested by Sergey are correct.
But now I have this problem:-
I set the position property of adxCommandBar1 to adxMsoBarMenuBar, run debug mode (F5), but the host application (Excel) gave an Error message box with title "Office" and error message as "unspecified error". I then close Excel and exit the project. Now every time I fire up Excel, this "unspecified error" always appear.
I then try to use regsvr32 to uninstall manually the AddinExpress.MSO.dll, but got a message saying "AddinExpress.MSO.dll was loaded, but the DllUnregisterServer entry point was not found." Could it be that AddinExpress.MSO.dll was not properly unloaded whenever I hit error in debuging??
How can I get rid of the "unspecified error" message in Excel??
Can anyone help?? |

in office applications there is a command where a dialog is show with all installed/registered com addins for this application...
unfortunately its not shown by default, you have to customize your excel commandbars (tools->customize or right click on a command bar -> customize)
change to the commands tab and select the category "tools"
on the left side you will find (after some scrolling) a command called "COM Addins..."
drag and drop him to any command bar and press ok
now click onto the button you've created and you will see a dialog with your addins where you can manage the installed addins
to find the problem with your addin i would recommend to set a breakpoint onto the "InitializeComponent" Method
then you should find where the problem occures
One notice:
i think the AddInExpress.MSO.dll is just a helper dll with the parent classes and interfaces for your addin and helper methods to register/unregister your addin into the registryBest regards,

Hi Sven,
You cannot add a new menu bar. In this case we added this item to the ADXCommandBarType enumeration because you can attach ADXCommandBar to the main menu and get its type namely adxMsoMenuBar.
To unregister COM add-in assemlies you should use the regasm utility. But then you will get an exception anew because the add-in must start the hostapp to remove its command bars.
Just remove the add-in key from the regpath
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Excel\AddIns
