How to show the Add-Ins manager dialog box?

Office 365 / Win7

I want my novice users to quickly view the PowerPoint Add-Ins manager dialog box without digging for it. (They won't have the Developer tab.)

In an add-in they have running that I wrote, I'm trying to code a button within a userform or as a menu command that opens the PowerPoint Add-Ins manager dialog box with a click (similar to xlDialogAddinManager in Excel).

If that can't be done, I'd like to code it to activate the Developer tab onto the tool ribbon if not already there, so the Add-Ins command can be accessed from there.

Solution

  • Thanks to Mathieu Guindon for the lead to use CommandBars, I came up with this and it worked for me...

    Application.CommandBars.ExecuteMso "AddInManager"
