Hello guys,

I have a question. I was successful in making excel add-ins in 2007, But i have a problem with excel 2003. what i want is, that excel add-in should shows under add-in tab. ya, i want it in excel 2003 and 2007 both version.

I found some of the add-ins are shown under the add-in tabs. How to do that?

In the add-ins dialog, click Browse and find your add-in. It should show up in the dialog then.

Hey,
Thanks for the quick reply, i got in 2003 but in 2007 it doesn't show anything otherwise shows in vba environment.


here is a simple example:

i have a macro like



sub test()
dim n as string
n = inputbox("Enter Your Name")
range("a1").value = n
end sub

I saved this file as add-in,
How do i show this under add-in tab?
Any Clue?

Hi Krrish,

Sorry, I thought you were asking about 2003. I do not have 2007, so cannot help:(

I think you need to be clearer.

Is the problem in 2007 or 2003?

Where aand what are you expecting to see?

You need to have some commandbars for it to show there.

If you don't have any commandbars already, why do you want it to appear in the addins tab? What does your addin do?

????????

I told you, I want to create a new add-in under Add-ins Tab in 2007. That's what i am asking how do i insert or create a new add-in.

You don't understand. The addin does not appear in the addins tab just because it exists, any 2003 commandbars that the addin has will appear in the addin s tab in 2007, not as a toolbar or menu as it does it 2003.

Essentially if you have created a custom toolbar in 2003, it appears under the addins tab when you open that file in 2007. However there is no simple method of adding a new button directly to the addin tab in 2007.

Short answer: you need to have a different approach for 2007.
