Solidworks can't find the plug-in

Hi,
I've installed the new plug-in on 2 PCs. They both have SW 2007.
Each time I have uninstalled the old plug-in before installing the new one.
For some strange reason, it works on 1 machine and not on the other.
SW 2007 says it can't find the plug-in. I've tried to uninstall and install again several times without success :cry:
Any help will be welcome.

Hi Pierre,

I'll need very accurate information to find why this is happening.

- using SolidWorks 2007 SP???
- which operating system?
- (exactly) what does SolidWorks say about not finding the plugin?
- when you hover over the plugin in the AddIn Manager, does it say mscoree.dll at the bottom of the tooltip?
- have you already tried the steps in the readme.txt packaged with the installer?

Thanks,

JD

Sorry JD, like most stupid people I did not read and follow the readme.text step by step. :oops: :oops:
Now that I did so, everything runs fine.
Many thanks. :D
