Viewing Available Application-Specific Add-ins

Application-specific add-ins appears in various dialog boxes depending on which application you are using. In Microsoft® Word, this is the Templates and Add-Ins dialog box; in Microsoft® Excel and Microsoft® PowerPoint®, it is the Add-Ins dialog box; in Microsoft® Access, it is the Add-In Manager.

Each dialog box has buttons to add or remove add-ins from the list of application-specific add-ins, and a check box to indicate whether the add-in is loaded. As with COM add-ins, the application-specific add-in must be loaded into memory before it can be used.
