Hi Sebastian,

I run "regasm <dll name> /codebase" under Office 2013 but I could not see the custom tab or buttons.
In the Word Options dialog, under the Add-ins, I did not see my add-in.
I did not have problem on Office 2010.

I've used the Developer Toolbox and verified that my dll supports 2013.

What did I miss out?

Thanks.

Wait, I actually have the same problem on Office 2010 if I didn't run it from Visual Studio.
If I run Word from Program Files direct, I could not see the custom buttons.
If I run Word from Visual Studio, then I can see the buttons.

I tried on Office 2003 but cannot see any buttons as well.
Then, I compiled and regasm the sample NetOfficeTools.SimpleWordCS2.dll but still, I couldn't see any custom buttons.

Where did I do wrong?
Thanks.
