I have an addin with an UDF getRegExResult . I want to add a function description and arguments descriptions to this function, so when user installs the addin, closes, opens excel few times and goes to "Insert Function" Dialog box he will be able to find the function with description of the arguments. The same is asked here . I found one answer that suits my needs. Except... I want to be able to do this through an Excel Addin. My idea is to put call into addin workbook_open event like so: Private Sub Workbook_Open() Call getRegExResultRegister End Sub Public Sub getRegExResultRegister()

I'm writing an Excel Addin that should work in both 2007 and 2010. When I create a new project with Visual Studio I need to decide which version I want. I've chosen 2007 before, but since I have 2010 installed I can't debug it. I get an error: You cannot debug or run this project, because the required version of the Microsft Office application is not installed. It is my understanding that if I target 2007 I should be able to run it on both 2007 and 2010. Is that correct? If that's so, can I debug it using 2010? A shared Add-in is made from a Visual Studio project creating a Com Add-In

I'm working on an big excel-addin with many modules. I need to export them to .bas file to manage them with SVN. I know a hot key to export them fast, Ctrl+E . But the number of my modules is too many that I still lose too much time to export them. Does anyone know a faster way to do this?

In visual studio I have an Excel 2010 Add-in project. How can I have that project create the following module: I know I can save that workbook with that module then use it with my add in. It will be nice if I can have my add-in create that module... It is possible to create the module. However for this to work the setting to "Trust access to the VB Project model" must be selected in Excel. It throws an error that access is denied if the trust setting is not selected. using Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel; using VB = Microsoft.Vbe.Interop; Excel.Application eApp = new Excel.Application()

I'm showing a custom task pane in an excel VSTO add-in, I'm building it and showing it as thus: var ctrl = new CellTaskPane(); var pane = CustomTaskPanes.Add(ctrl, "Custom Sheet"); pane.DockPosition = Office.MsoCTPDockPosition.msoCTPDockPositionRight; pane.DockPositionRestrict = Office.MsoCTPDockPositionRestrict.msoCTPDockPositionRestrictNoChange; pane.Visible = true; This is being done in the ThisAddin.cs file and it working just fine on my machine, both under a Debug session and with the add-in installed via the click-once installer. However, installing the add-in on a colleague's machine is

I am working on a library of COM Add-in and Excel Automation Add-in, whose core codes are written in C#. I'd like to set an optional argument for the function and I know that this is legal for both C# and VBA, and even Excel WorksheetFunction. But I find that finally the optional argument works exclusively for COM and Automation add-in, meaning that if one add-in is run first, then works well but the optional argument of the other one will not work. Below please see the example: In the VS 2013 solution, I have two projects: one is called TestVBA and another one is called TestExcel . TestVBA is
