Hello,
Well, I finally have my add-in ready to go and am ready for distribution.
Unfortunately, I have a few problems. Our method for installation is:
1. Install the O2003PIA
2. Install vstor.exe
3. Install the add-in which is created using VS2008's setup package.
I have also added a .vbs to the commit custom action that gives full access
to the appropriate assemblies using caspol.
If the user who installed the program has already run Outlook, then the
add-in functions fine. Unfortunately, that isn't always the case. Here is
where my problems begin:
If the user has not executed Outlook before, then the add-in doesn't show
up. Actually, the registry entries created disappear.
Also, if the user has executed Outlook before, but was not the one who
installed the add-in, then the add-in doesn't show up.
I have tried importing a .reg file with the registry entries created by the
install procedure. I also verified that the "InstallAllUsers" flag is
turned on within the setup project.
Would anybody know if there is a way I can install the add-in? Is there a
"silent install" that could run when Outlook runs? I'm sort of at a loss
:-(.
Thanks for your help,
cj
