error message when opening Calendar Printing Assistant
I tried that. First, I found it in Program Files (x86) folder, I don't think
that makes a difference. When I select "cpaoaddin.dll", nothing happens. It doesn't get added to the Add-Ins available list or anywhere.

Then we come back to this.
"Then I wonder if it isn't something to do with the security settings in Vista?

error message when opening Calendar Printing Assistant
Just as a follow up... I found out that it had to do with the CPAO Addin
Dlls. Here's how I was told to fix it and it worked. 1. Go to your program files - Microsoft Office - Office12 folder and check if you have the CPAO dlls there. If there is a cpaoaddin.dll then do step 2 2. Make sure Outlook and CPAO are not running, then run a CMD window as administrator and type: regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office12\cpaoaddin.dll" 3. Restart Outlook and CPAO "Nikki Peterson" wrote: I am at a loss as to what to tell you at this point.
