MS Office Forum / Publisher / Programming / August 2005Publisher - Connect Not firing at all in VS2003 Addin?
I am creating an add in that spans Outlook, Excel, Word, Visio, PowerPoint and Publisher. Everything works great except that when I open Publisher, the Add In is not loaded. The reg settings are automatically added by VS.NET and I verified that they are correct: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft -> Office -> Publisher -> AddIns -> (NAME).Connect Description "name" FriendlyName "name" LoadBehavior 0x00000003(3) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Even a simple Messagebox in the connect function will not fire. Has anyone run into this issue or have any ideas? I am using Publisher 2003, Visual Studio.NET 2003 and C# for the add-in.

I have run into this issue. It will occur if: a) The PIAs for Publisher 2003 are not installed (you did install them, right?) or b) Macros are being blocked. Go to Tools > Macros > Security > Trusted Publishers, and ensure that "Trust all installed templates and add-ins" is checked.  SignatureEd Bennett - MVP Microsoft Publisher Thank you very much. If I install this app with a key and register it with the CodeBase option, will I still have to force users to take that step with the plug it, or will it be automatically trusted by office apps? > Jamie Ayer <jayer@icorps.com> was very recently heard to utter: >> Even a simple Messagebox in the connect function will not fire.

I have never used the CodeBase option, but I'm guessing that you'll get the same options as you get when you install a commercial add-in - a dialog asking whether to trust the vendor listed in the key. If you choose to trust a particular add-in vendor, you don't need to trust all installed add-ins in order to be able to use the add-ins from that particular vendor. SignatureEd Bennett - MVP Microsoft Publisher Actually, no. It works. If you strong name the project, all office products seem to open the plug in regardless. Publisher will load the plug in regardless of you checking off the trust item or not. Thanks for giving me the help on this. The real problem was that I couldn't apply a strong name key because of two dll's I was including. As soon as I created the proper strongly typed assemblies for those and recompiled the project everything came out GOLDEN!!! Thank for you helping me look in another direction.. I was getting frustrated. Jamie > Jamie Ayer <jayer@icorps.com> was very recently heard to utter: >> Thank you very much.
