I have developed an Excel Add-in using VS2005, I have Excel 2003 on my
machine. It works as expected on my machine.
I created the an install package and tried to run it on a dev machine
without VS installed and using Excel XP. When I click the Automation button
I find my add-in in the list, I can add it and it is checks, no error
messages. But the add-in does not get loaded.
I checked the value of LoadBehavior and it changes from 3 to 2 when I open
excel, I tried changing it back to 3 but Excel keeps putting it back.
I have tried both with the shim and without with exactly the same results.
When I first installed it the regasm complained about the missing
Extensibility.dll, but I copied that over and now both my shim and add-in dll
appear to register successfully. How can I test what is wrong?
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Ben
