Installing a PPA via Registry

[adcworks]

Hi, the web seems devoid of answer to this question for all byt PPT 97 We
have developed a PPA file which we need to install as part of a general
application installation. We are using Microsoft Installer and can script the
registry. I found mention for PPT 97 of using AutoLoad and Path in a new key
within Addins in the registry but this does not appear to work for PPT 2003.

I can see some other keys in the Addins key that end in .Connect which have
LoadBehaviour but I am not sure what these do nor can find reference to them.
They are all set at 3.

Is there any way I can install a PPA to load on PPT startups using just the
registry, or some other transparent/easy way?

Thanks!

Since you haven't gotten a reply to this, here, I suggest you try asking in the
one-and-only Powerpoint newsgroup. Someone there should know
