Developers You can use this procedure to load or unload a COM add-in (COM add-in: A supplemental program with the filename extension .dll or .exe that extends the capabilities of a program by adding custom commands and specialized features. COM add-ins can be designed to load and run in one or more Office programs.) for testing before you have designed installation and removal programs for your add-in.
Other users of Microsoft Office Project 2003 If you are not a developer, you should not need this procedure. Contact the person who provided the add-in if you need installation and removal instructions.
