On my desktop Excel, I have an add-in that adds a command button to the menu bar. So, whenever I launch Excel, that command button is available.
However, we have a website where you can load HTML pages on the screen into Excel, and when this option is selected, Excel is launched WITHIN the IE window. In this case, the command button is not available. However, if I follow the menu path Tools > Add-Ins, I see that my add-in is checked and loaded with the application running within IE.
Can anyone give me some insight into how Excel runs within the IE window, as a general discussion, or more specifically, why this command button isn't available when Excel is running inside of IE, but is when Excel is run on its own (the command button is created by the add-in, and is invoked from the On-Open workbook event of the add-in xla file).
Thanking you in advance. Mike K
