This seems really simple, but it's not working for me - I created a new
Add-In project after installing the SDK April 2006 release. The
project creates fine it seems, but when debugging, the new instance of
VS.Net does not have the add-in in it's Tools menu.

One other interesting thing - when I create the project, the event log
has an entry with :

"One or more Visual Studio templates do not match any installed project
packages."

Any idea why this is not working??

Hi Tim,

There can be two problems here:

- The add-in is not loaded

- The add-in is loaded but it does not create the UI. I am not sure if you
are familiar with the ext_cm_UISetup flag and all that stuff, but take a
look at this article of mine:
