COM Shared Add-in (Part 3)

To install the Office XP PIAs

On a computer with Visual Studio .NET installed and the extracted Office XP PIAs, on the Start menu, click (All) Programs, point to Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, point to Visual Studio .NET Tools, and click Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt. The Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt window appears. This facilitates the use of the .NET Framework SDK tools.

1. In the Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt window, use the cd (change directory) command to change to the file directory in which the Office XP PIAs were extracted. For example, if you extracted the Office XP PIAs to a C:\Office XP PIAs\ folder, type

cd C:\Office XP PIAs\

and press ENTER.

3. To install all of the Office XP PIAs at once, type

register.bat

and press ENTER.
