Hello all,

Not sure if this is where this the area where this question should be asked.

I am doing some house keeping and need to move my Paste Buddy Add-in files to another location. I tried deleting the add-in and tried to point it to it's new location but every time I open Excel I get an error message stating Paste Buddy has been moved or deleted as is looking in the original location.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Enter current date or time
Ctrl+: enters current time. Ctrl+; enters current date. Use Ctrl+: Ctrl+; Enter for current date & time.
If you move an add-in and restart Excel, you should be prompted to remove it from the list of add-ins, no?

shg,

Yes I did that too. I Removed the add-in, it closed excel and even rebooted my computer. Still getting the same message and it's looking in it's original location.

Right.

Remove it from the list, then close and restart Excel -- you shouldn't get a message. Then add it back in, browsing to the new location from the Add-Ins dialog.

I did it step by step how you stated and it worked. I guess I was doing something out of order.

Thank you for the help.
Greatly appreciated.

Have a great day
Bob
