Notes

  • Loading a COM add-in makes it active, which means that it will run and do what it has been programmed to do.

  • Unloading a COM add-in makes it inactive but keeps its name in the Add-ins available list and does not delete it from your computer.

  • Most COM add-ins are loaded automatically when they are installed.
