Remarks

The IAddInExtension interface defines a set of members that extend the functionality of AddIn objects.

The IAddInExtension interface is implemented by the AddInBase class. This is the base class for the generated ThisAddIn class in application-level projects. For more information, see Programming Application-Level Add-Ins.
