AddIn loads and next time not

[Carsten Lahme]

Hi NGs,
I'm very confused.
I'm using Visual Studio .net 2003 german on a Windows 2000
Professional SP4 german with Office 2000 Professional german

I wrote a standart Addin for Outlook using the wizzard (Visual Basic).
The Addin loads if Outlook is started (debug mode and setuproutine).
After changing something (nothing at the references, just some code
-eg: before: print after: Printline) the Addin doesn't load anymore.
I have to startup a new projekt, copy and paste the code and than it
runs again for a few times.

Just more confusing: I take the projectfolder, zip and mail it to
somebody else, unpack and start it on his machine, the addin loads,
even if it didn't before on my machine (both have the same
configuration, of course).

Is there anybody familiar with this. I've read a few threads, but
found none that meets this.

thanks in advanced

Carsten

Hi again,
I tracked down some issues I found in other Threads.
After monitoring the registry it seemed, that the Addin didn't get
registered by VS-Debugger nor the setup routine.
I created a new project, ran the debugger, exported the registry-keys
and imported these for the original project.
Now both, the debugger and the Setup-routine work.
Even so it is very strange, but now the setuproutine even works on
other client machines regardless of OS-version nor Outlookversion.

As I said in the beggining: I am confused.

grts
