MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Add-Ins / October 2005outlvba.dll is not a valid Office Add-in
Hi, when starting Outlook I get this error C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\AddIns\outlvba.dll is not a valid Office Add-in There is nothing in that folder and looking for Add-ins doesn't get me any closer, cause there are no Add-ins under Help and Add-ins :-/ Can anyone help? assuming that you are using outlook 2003, outlvba.dll should exist at \Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\ADDINS. Assuming the file is there, it could be corrupt. If this is the case, you can rename it to outlvba.backup and then try doing a detect and repair on Office via the add/remove applet in the control panel. This should bring in a new copy of the file. By the way, the reason that you don't see the addin installed is that this addin gets registered under HKLM and not HKCU. /neo ps - hklm location is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Microsoft.VbaAddinForOutlook.1 The filename field only contains outlvba.dll. > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Can anyone help? we are using ol 2003. But none of the users getting this error) are using add-inns. Nobody knows about the outlvba.dll And there is no file to rename - cause the add-inn folder is empty. I tried backup and delete on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Microsoft.VbaAddinForOutlook.1 And it seems ok. The error doesn't appear anymore, and outlook seems working fine. But lets see how long :-) outlvba.dll is what drives outlook's macros. (e.g. Tools > Macro > Macros) and as stated earlier, it shouldn't exist in the "users" profile. the file should exist in the program files area I mentioned. > we are using ol 2003.
