I am trying to load and add-in (.ppa file) that if loaded
properly should add another menu item to my toolbar. The
add-in works fine on a PowerPoint 2000 v9, where I copied
it from. I have also done the following:
- manually copied over the registry file.
- set macro security level to "low".
I was wondering if someone had any ideas on how I could
install this add-in or if there was some interoperability
issues in installing add-ins written for PowerPoint 2000
and PowerPoint 2002.

Thanks in advance for all your help.
 
My situation is the reverse. I am trying to load a .ppa
file that works fine on PowerPoint 2000 on to a machine
with PowerPoint 2002.

Can you please elaborate on how to find new
properties/objects that may be needed; and how to account
for them?

Thanks.

If it's your own addin, load the source PPT file and see if it compiles (Debug,
Compile) in the VBA IDE.

If it's not your own addin, you'll probably need to contact the developer.
Thanks.

Steve,

All I have is the .ppa file. When I load the add-in,
PowerPoint doesn't give me any errors and shows it as
loaded in the add-in window. Any other ideas on what I can
do?

Thanks.
 
Which is this add-in? Can you contant the author of the PPA and explain the
proble to him. He must be suppressing error message in the code and hence
you do not realize if there is any error in the code while loading the
add-in.

Tim,
I'd bet that there's another addin on the V9 machine that enable
events and is being used to call the AutoOpen routine to create the
menu. That is probably not being called on the V10 machine.
