How can I remove the Excel COM addin from the Excel program?

[Ken Kee via OfficeKB.com]

I have developed a COM addin for EXCEL. I have initially set my commandBar
to be "My Custom Button". After I have modified the text for the button,
the button still did not get updated, I got another blank button. I tried
to removed the COM addin using my setup. But the "My Custom Button" still
there along with my blank button. Has anybody seen this behavior before?
Can you suggest me something to fix this? Thanks.

I think the button goes into Excel's xlb file. Once you fnd it, you can
throw it away. Excel will create a new file. This will restore all
customizations that you have done. The link below tells you where to look
for the xlb file.

Thanks for the reply. You have been a great help. What about removing addin
from Word? I do not see anything similar to Excel. Please reply, thanks.
