Hello,

I am adding an AddIn through VBA in the follow manner:

Code:

 
 
sDirectory = "C:\directory\"
    sFilePath = sDirectory & "AddInFile.dot"
AddIns.Add FileName:=sFilePath, Install:=True

This works for most of my users, but a couple have had a problem with Word not being able to locate the file resulting in an error. The interesting part is that it worked for these users for 6 to 8 weeks and then stopped working.



Additionally, if I rename the file and change the file path in the VBA, Word then can find the file. I have googled this one for about a week with no luck. If I run the following code:

VBA says the file is there.

Also, another user can log into the specific machine and the application works as expected, so the issue seems to be confined to the users specific Word files under their account. One user reimaged their machine and the problem went away but this is not a valid solution for obvious reasons.

Is there a cache in word (other than recent files, recent places) that can be cleared to help Word find the file or some solution to this particular issue?

Thanks in advance for any help.
