Hello
I have deployed a SmartDoc solution to a clients machine (WinXP) and I have installed all the prerequisites and setup the security properties and when I run the Smart Doc excel file I cant use the SmartDoc pane (Document Actions _Other Tasks Panes). I have tried to search for it and no luck and i dont get any errors.
The funny part about all of this is that I have another identical machine(Win 2k) and I have used the same deployment steps as in the WinXp machine and I am able to use the SmartDoc solution.
Any ideas any body I know it is like searching for an exotic fish in a desert.
* Uninstall and Install has being performed and no luck 
Thanks

I'm sorry you are having some grief with this solution.
Are you creating an Actions Pane VSTO solution or a non-VSTO solution that is just a managed smart document
If it is the latter, you should consult my article here:
OfficeTalk: The Definitive "Hello World" Managed Smart Document Tutorial
It has been a popular and useful article.
HTH,
John.
