    I want the users to install the addin that will make a icon.

    You need to use the "Implements IDTExtensibility2" in the general declarations section of your
    designer. Then code for each of the five events, they are required for an Add-In.

    Checkout the CommandBars collection object to add your menuitem or toolbaritem.
