Deployment Word 2007 Add-in

[William]

Hi,

I have an issue with deployment of a Word 2007 Add-in which is created
VSTO 2005 SE.
When I deploy it on a machine with running Windows XP or Vista without
Visual Studio 2005, the add-in doesn't install in Word. When I add
manually the add-in, the following error occurs.

"This is not a valid Office Add-in"

Has someone a suggest?

Greetings,

William

Is the VSTO 2005 SE runtime installed on the target machine?

I have the same problem..

I have tried on every application of Office 2007 but it vain

but when I tried to create addin for my Work Computer's Office 2003,
it worked fine.

Now the only thing different in this case is that on my personal
computer I have installed both Office 2007 and Visual Studio on D:
drive instead of default C:

May be because of this the addins are not working on my computer

I am still looking for the solution for my problem.

Last time I saw this message was when I tried to add my *COM add-in* using
the 'Tools', 'Templates and Add-in' menu rather than 'Tools', 'COM Add-ins'
(which isn't visible by default, so you have to use Tools, Customize to get
it to show up).

I was having the same problem...

I uninstalled the Visual studio and Microsoft Office from D drive and
installed to the default location C:\Program Files and everything
started working correctly....
