Hi I have successfully created a ppam addin that does work as desired. I need to deploy this to around 2000 users.

What I need to know how to script / automatically load the addin. I have manually done this on the test pc (Powerpoint Options - Addins - Powerpoint Addins - and browsing for the addin) But obviously I need to automate this as it is not economic to manually do this on all pcs.

I invested some time in browsing Office help, to no avail. But I didn't go the distance to create an add-in in order to trace changes in settings and registry.

So, once you got me hooked, I subscribed to the thread to see what would happen.

Congrats!
