Deploying an Add-in to all users

[Tim Cadieux]

I need to send a PPA file to a multitude of out users. I
created a REG key as indicated in this article
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;222685&Product=ppt2000
but i cannot get this to work.

Has anyone had success with this? thank you.

The registration in the Local Machine hive will make it available to all
users. Were you able to load it for a given user prior to attempting to make
it available to all?

 

[Tim Cadieux]

Other than loading it manually, via Tools/Addins..i
haven't been able to get it to load at all.

On Windowx XP with Word 2000...

i created the following

i had to create the following

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\9.0
\PowerPoint\AddIns\MyAddin

I created a string key call Autoload with this entry :
dword:ffffffff

and i create a string key called PATH with this entry:
C:\Documents and Settings\tcadieux\Application
Data\Microsoft\AddIns\edms-sgde.ppa

nothing happens...

Make sure the security settings in PowerPoint are not set to High. They
need to be Medium to load the addin.

Mine is set at low..

Does anyone perhaps have other Web links that might have
good examples, i wasn't to keen on what MS had on their
web page.

Thankx
