    Strange things happen (Add In)

    Recently my machine is added on a new server.
    The problem I get know is there is nothing more in the Add In manager to select.
    I've made a error add in to paste into all my subs and functions but have no option anymore to select it.

    When I log in localy on the machine everything works fine , if i log into the network the add in list is empty.

    I have all the rights on the server.
    Does anyone know where i can find the registry settings for it , so i can adjust them for my needs.


    Advanced thanks.

    I had the same problem once, you have to register the dll's again with regsrv32.exe. I forgot which ones, but I'll try to find out. Most of the stuff get's back then, but I get still no Api-Viewer, but I got the resource viewer, and the wizards (If you want those )

    I think you get a different User.dat when you log into the network (roaming profiles).
    The problem is the add-ins displayed are loaded from the HKEY_CURRENT_USER section of the registry.
    When you installed Visual Basic, i think you were logged in locally.

    You could correct this problem by logging in locally. Run regedit, and export the following registry key to a .reg file. (select this key, and select "Registry --> export registry file" from the menu)

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Visual Basic\6.0

    Next log in to the network, and run the .reg file you created.

    It is always a good idea to backup the registry before doing things like this.

    Another option is to re-install VB (and the service pack you used) when you are logged in to the network.
