Word 2007 Add-In using Visual Studio 2005 tools for office 2007?

Hi,  
        I'm developing an Add-In for MS Word Document 2007. I’m getting problem with the deployment. If I’m running the Add-In project from the VS it’s running properly. I’ve created Setup project for the Add-In and I added the dependencies to setup project. After installed the Add-In using generated Setup-kit it’s not working.

        Can you help me in the same?

Thanks

Hi,

  Apart from office/word 2007,do you have any other previous versions of office/word installed on your development machine?

if yes, then  my guess is try testing your add-in set up on a clean machine with office 2007 only.

I uninstalled the office 2003 when I was installing the 2007.

thanks

I am not sure of what exactly your problem is,but I suggest you not to run installer on your development machine,as Windows gets confused by registry entries for both running the add-in from the debugger and running it as a Word add-in.So,you can create a new add-in with a new name and copy all the files into it.This would probably solve your problem.

thanks
I tried with this also. but it's get failed to load the word Add-in..
The problem is word not loading the Add-In.
Our add-in always under the Inactive Application Add-In list.

Have you tried this?

When you open the window(File Menu/Word Options/Add-ins),which lists out all the active and inactive add-ins,you'll find  'Manage Box'.Select 'Com Add-In' and click 'Go'. 

This will list out all the COM Add-Ins,checking the required add-in will make it active.

    I’ve solved the problem that occurred in the Office 2007 Add-Ins deployment using VSTO 2005. 

Solution:

     I’ve the created the Word Add-In as a shared assembly and I've registerd in the GAC. It's working fine.

Thanks to all.

Thanks, I had run into the same issue.

I am having the same problem with my add-in.

I run the setup of the add-in on my development m/c.

Could u please tell me the procedure how to enable the add-in in word 2007.

Or how to register the add-in assembly in GAC.

Thanks & Regards
