in HKLM are not listed to prevent the user from disabling them and thus
affecting other users.

Thanks for your reply but thid doesnt solve my problem.

My addin is a simple one just showing a "Hello" in messageBox. Earlier
this
addin was being loaded successfully. Even then it was not listed under COM
Addins list.

I dont want anybody to look into the reasons for COM Addin not being
loaded.
I just want to know that even if the addin was getting loaded sucessfully,
it
is still not showing itself in COM Addins list on Outlook XP 2003

Hi Kulvinder,

The LoadBheaviour of this Addin gets changed to 2 whenever i open
Outlook.

Try to debug the add-in. Looks like you have an exception at add-in
startup.
Also, please check Disabled Items: Help | About | Disabled Items in
Office
2002-2003 and Office Menu | Addins | Manage | Disabled Items in Office
2007.

Hi,

I have created a Outlook 2002 COM Addin "Test" which just displays a
Message
box in the OnConnection method.

I have facing a weird problem that eventhough the toolbar is installed,
it
is not getting displayed in the COM Addins list.

I have double checked that the when i created the COM Addin using the
Shared
Addin wizard, i unchecked "Addin should be visible to all users"
checkbox.

The LoadBheaviour of this Addin gets changed to 2 whenever i open
Outlook.

I have checked that it has .NET 2.0 runtime, Outlook.Interop, stdole
and
Office dlls in GAC and the addin has been registered under HKCU

Can anybody help
