As all add-ins used in VB IDE VBCodeUtility has to be registered before can be launched. When you installed the package it was registered the ActiveX DLL of the program, into the registry, but wasn't registered as VB add-in. All you have to do is to change by hand the file VBAddin.ini, found in %WINDIR% (generally C:\Windows or C:\WinNT). In this ini file you have to add the following line:

VBCodeUtility.Connect=0

After this, you can run the program directly in VB IDE by selecting Add-Ins | Add-ins manager ... and then select "VBCodeUtility.Connect" from list and check "Load/Unload" and "Load on Startup".

Be aware that isn't any direct shortcut to launch the program - is created only an shortcut to help file when you install the program. The only way of running the program is by loading it into VB IDE, as described above (because is an ActiveX DLL).

The tool-bar of the program will show up and also, a new line in Add-ins item of the menu.

Press CodeUtility for showing the main form of the program or keep the mouse a second for tool-tips, for other buttons.

For this program it's supposed you already have Visual Studio installed (with VB run-time and ADO). Also, it's used "Microsoft Office 8.0 Object Library" (or newer).

Back ! Go back !
