I have created several macros for the VS.NET IDE using Microsoft Visual
Studio Macros 7.1. In my IDE I have created a new custom toolbar with macros
on the toolbar. I have also assigned keyboard commands to some of the macros.

My question: How do I create a package so that I can install (and uninstall)
my custom toolbar/macros on other developers machines?

Thank you

Hi David,

If you plan to deploy some macros with a user interface (toolbars, buttons,
etc), it's much better to deploy them as an add-in. There is a section "For
add-in developers" on my web site (below) to get you started with add-ins,
and I have written several HOWTO articles about creating toolbars and
buttons.
