Use the universal name of the addon, not the local name.
To find the universal name, click Tools > Macros > Visual Basic Editor and
type this in the immediate window:
?Application.Addons("Database Wizard").NameU
=DBWiz

To list the names of all addons, run this macro:
Sub ListAddons
Dim oAddon As Visio.Addon
For Each oAddon In Application.Addons
    Debug.Print oAddon.Name, oAddon.NameU
Next oAddon
End Sub

Hope this helps,
