Deployment of managed COM Add-in

M

Michael Cross

Hello NG,

I develop a COM Add In for Office 2000 and XP using Visual Basic .NET.
My problem is to deploy my solution to another computer. First I tried
to write a small Add-in and build a setup for this one. The only thing
this small project does, is to add some buttons to the command bar and
to the menu bar and display a messagebox after hitting such a button.
This project works and is easy to install on the other computer.

But my virtually project does not work after installing on my
testcomputer. This project is a little more larger and contains two
projects and some references to COM Dlls I need to use.

After building my setup project and installing it on the target
computer, all registry settings are setted as well. But the add in
does not start and I don't know why. I am wondering, cause my small
project starts on the target machine, but not my larger larger
project.

I red the appropriate articles from the MSDN, but couldn't find a way
to solve my problem.

Has anyone an idea?

I develop with Visual Studio .NET 2003 and with .NET Framework 1.1.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Michael
