Have you registered the .dll with "regasm ThePath\TheName.dll /codebase" command?

Yes i did that but it was giving some error like regasm 000: provide strong assembly name and re- register it as it would inetefere with some other applications.

However when i did that using adminstrative privileges it still gave that error but now the add-ins are enabled i dont know how but i can see them now....

To avoid this error message and build strong libraries, you need to sign the assembly.

I think that is a warning, and not an error, so it should have registered your dll anyway.

Hi Greet/Luis,

Everything was working fine for me when i tested that using .Net. However i need to use VB6 for my project and when i did that it gave me server error i can see the menus created by me. The server error states that: The action could not be completed because "Addins-Microsoft VB[run]" is not responding. Choose switch to and correct the problem.

How can i get rid of this problem now.
Appreciate your help on this.

Thanks
