Interesting issue with Thinapp'd Excel Add-In and native Excel 2010

I have captured SAPGUI 7.20 with Business Explorer 7 successfully but am have one issue that I hope someone here may be able to assist with.

 

I am using 2 seperate entry points, one for SAP logon pad and one for Business Explorer. SAP logon pad is working fine haven't had any problems but clicking on Business Explorer entry point calls native Excel 2010 as it's suppose to but once a worksheet is open clicking on the "File" tab in Excel an error message screen displays. It's a thinapp error and reads:

 

Unable to load DLL C:\Program Files\Microsoft Lync\communicator.exe->Uc.dll
The specified module could not be found.

 

This same error window pops up a total of six times and once cleared with an OK or cancel I can continue working within Excel 2010 fine.

So it's not a show stopper but I'm getting some flack about the annoyance factor of it.

 

I captured this thinapp project on a clean Windows XP SP3 with Office 2010 virtual machine and getting this error on a Windows 7 SP1 end-user workstation. The end-user workstation does have Microsoft Lync installed on it while the capture machine did not. The head scratcher for me is...

Why the heck is anything in the Excel/Thinapp looking for communicator in the first place?

 

I tried to go back and recapture with that specific dll (Uc.dll) by adding it to a "Microsoft" folder under %ProgramFilesDir% but now the entry point doesn't call native Excel so that's a no go.

I'm thinking it would be better just to have the thinapp completely ignore the exsistance of native Microsoft communicator but not sure how to accomplish that.

 

Any insight or help is greatly apprecaited.

 

Thanks,

Brian
