Hi!
My shared add-in (developed in C# 2005) for Excel is installed on a Vista
machine with Office 2007. Installation as administrator, specifying that the
add-in should be available for all users of the computer (registry entry in
HKLM, strongly named, no COM shim is used). It loads and works correctly in
the administrator account. But when I am switching to a user account, it
simply doesn't load in Excel 2007 anymore (add-in is faded out and unchecked,
and it says "Not loaded. A runtime error ocurred during the loading of the
COM add-in."). Investigating the case further, I found out that it doesn't
even call the Connect, OnConnection or OnStartupComplete methods of the
add-in. So there must be something outside of my add-in that makes it
stopping to load. I think some security issue...?
The add-in works perfectly on Windows XP (admin & user) and Vista (admin).
Only the Vista user account is making the troubles. Anyone any idea what the
cause might be?
Thank you so much for helping me! I appreciate your efforts.
