Hi,
based on a VB sample app addin project, shipped with CorelCAD 2014 installation, I added trivial function to test VSTA workflow and successfully compiled the code. DLL library got installed in "My Documents\CorelCAD\AppAddins\CorelCADAddIn\CorelCADAddIn.dll" by included WSH script.
However I can't see any pointers that this addin is loaded in CorelCAD.
I noticed that macro functionality is provided by CorelCADMacros C# project, which is accessible from VSTA manager, but I can't see how to use my addin, nor such scenario is mentioned in CorelCAD help file, or indexed by Google.
Can someone provide more info?
Thanks in advance
Klo

Feedback from the developers: The created macros can be used via the VSTA Manager (toolbar / Manage tab in the Ribbon UI workspaces) or via VSTA command.
Loading or executing the commands separately is not possible.
Best regards,Klaus.
Thanks for your replies

Klaus,
I wasn't asking about macros. I already noticed that I can create macro function in default CorelCAD project, which happens to be "CorelCADMacros.csproj" i.e. by appending my function in "AppAddIn.cs" file, which is then available in CorelCAD VSTA manager. That's fine.
I was curious about provided VB.NET project, namely "CorelCADAddInProject.vbproj". Here is screenshot of this project in which I added trivial "Hello()" subroutine:
Project is compiled successfully, and as mentioned distributed as "My Documents\CorelCAD\AppAddins\CorelCADAddIn\CorelCADAddIn.dll", but I can't see how to invoke "Hello()" function in CorelCAD, as it is not available in VSTA Manager toolbar dropdown menu (as functions from CorelCADMacros are).
Regards,
