I have realized two COM add-in for Outlook 2000.

If I insert them one by one I do not have problems and each add-in works in
correct way.

What I'm not able to do is to insert them at the same time, that is to have
two add-ins active simultaneously.
When I try to insert them from the men?:
Tools - Options - Other - Advanced Options - Additional Components COM -
Through the key add, I can insert only a single one, if I try to insert an
other one to the successive start up of Outlook, I find the last one
inserted in place of the first one.

Is it possible to insert more add-ins in Outlook 2000 and see them at the
same time from the window Additional Components COM?

Thank you
Bye

There should be no problems having as many addins as you want, unless
they share the same registry key and name. I often have up to 10 or 12
addins I've created running and installed at the same time.

Provide some more details on how you are registering your addins and
anything else that might help pinpoint the problem.

I have resolved my problem:

the cause was that the two add-ins had the same name of the project created
in Visual Basic 6.0.
As I have renamed the project, I have been able to insert the two add-ins
at the same time.

Thank you
