Add-in Express implements everything required by the COM add-in, smart tag and Excel RTD server technologies, adds to IDE several wizards, installs technology-specific components, and organizes projects through the special RAD modules. All this makes COM add-in development much faster and easier.
With Add-in Express there is no need to develop different add-ins for different applications. Each add-in based on Add-in Express is shared, so applications can be added or removed from the supported application list at any time.
