Word Addin issue

[Wamiq Ansari]

Hello,

MSDN says that a Word Addin when loaded provides functionality to all the
Word documents. However, my question is :
'Is that functionality available if a Word Template document is opened, for
example a .dot file?'

I have noticed that some events from the addin fail to fire, when working
with a .dot file.

Thanks in Advance!

Hi Wamiq,

Generally, an Addin will be available for all documents. If, however, the
current document or its attached template, duplicates something in the addin
(a toolbar with the same name, for example) that document or its template
will take precedence over the functionality in the Addin.
