Word fails to load any of VS.NET generated Add-ins?

P

Peter

Hello,

While debugging my add-in in Word I mistakenly stop the add-in which killed Word. Now my add-in apparantly does not load. I put a break in the OnConnection function and it never gets called. I checked the Loadbehavior and it set to 3 which I think is OK. I also created new add-ins and Word does not recognize those either. However, my add-in among others stilll work in Excel. Any Ideas? Is there a options I have turn on add-in support in Word?

Many Thanks
Peter

Hi,
Most likely "mscoree.dll" has been disabled in Word. If a managed add-in
reg-ed for com interop crashes an app (eg, Word), mscoree.dll will be
disabled for that particular app (in this eg, Word). This means, *all* Word
managed add-ins reg-ed for com interop won't be able run. Since this is on
a per app basis, managed add-ins reg-ed for other apps (like Excel, PPT,
OL.) will still run as mscoree.dll will still be allowed to load for those
apps.

To renable, try

btw, could you please get back to me and tell me exactly what is the display
name you see in the list? Thanks.
