Hi,
I am trying to write a macro that will load the Eikon excel Addin once excel is opened. I am struggling to find the code that will do this. I have tried the below, but without much success. Is it possible to provide vba that will do this?
If Application.COMAddIns("Thomson Reuters Eikon - Microsoft Office").Connect = False Then Application.COMAddIns("Thomson Reuters Eikon - Microsoft Office").Connect = True
thanks.
The index used to select a COM add-in from the COMAddins class returned by Application.COMAddIns is the add-in ProgID, not the friendly name of the COM Add-in, which you can see in Excel Options dialog.
ProgIDs for Excel COM add-ins can be found in Windows registry. The one for "Thomson Reuters Eikon - Microsoft Office" appears as a key under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\Excel\AddIns, and the ProgID is "PowerlinkCOMAddIn.COMAddIn". So, the command you're looking for is:
Application.COMAddIns("PowerlinkCOMAddIn.COMAddIn").Connect = True
