Yep, software metering won’t help. Not sure if telemetry will even tell you 
that.

Thanks Jason.  I did suggest that couple of weeks ago but he keeps asking to do 
it with CM. I figured this wasn't possible but wanted to ask just in case 
someone found a creative way here.

No. ConfigMgr software metering requires an exe.

You can use Office telemetry though for this task:

Subject: [mssms] Software Metering - Office Add-Ins

Is there a way to enable metering for Office Add-ins?  Lot of legal clients 
have applications integrated with Office particularly Word and Outlook.  Most 
of these are not EXEs but COM Add-in which are DLLs.  I have one customer 
wanted to know if his users are using those add-ons or not and want to be able 
to meter those.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
