Target Excel is a 32 bits version, can one tell me how to compile my addin accordingly ?

[Vincent Boilay]

Do I simply have to set "Platform target" to x86 ?
Thank you.

Hi Vincent,

Your add-in project should be built for "AnyCPU" (don't set a PlatformTarget in the project).

Then in the output you will see two .xll add-ins:

  MyProject-AddIn.xll

  MyProject.AddIn64.xll

with corresponding packed outputs in the 'publish' subdirectory.

The .xlls which don't say "64" are for 32-bit Excel.

Debugging from the project should automatically detect the installed version of Excel, and load the right add-in.

so simple...thx.

is that normal that a 64bit XL cannot load the 32bit addin version ?
