    Goto the addins dialog and see if it is there, if so, uncheck it.

    It might be a COM addin. I have looked on the site but there is nothing that tells you, and I am not going to install it just to check. Maybe you could email the guy and ask him how to uninstall it.

    A thought, is there an uninstall utility in the app folder, or have you looked at Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel.

    Perhaps going to a restore point right before you installed it. (if there is one) - That can be risky though, so best to decide if you are ready to take the 44 magnum approach, or just wait longer to hopefully hear back from the developer. - Of course if you do go to a restore point, be sure you have a backup, preferably a full image using "Acronis True Image" or equivalent, so you are sure to be able to get back to where you started.

    By your code, I'm inclined to ask if you only care to remove the menu, or button, that is associated with the com add-in. That should be fairly easy I would think.

    Originator of Excel Utilities (LDUTIL)

    I am sorry that I didn't see your post long ago.
    If you emailed me, it was lost in cyberspace.

    Uninstall is easy: Just look in the Users menu and select Uninstall.
    If you have a really old version, the Uninstall button is right
    on the Installation workbook, next to the Install button.

    In that case, all you do is reload the LDUTIL file and click Uninstall.

    When people email me to find out how to uninstall, I always ask
    them why, and I ALWAYS answer any email.
