They worked recently but today started to give errors. I was alerted to this by a colleague, but it was still working on my computer. I checked his version of Excel against mine and his was newer. I noticed there were http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27411399/microsoft-excel-activex-controls-disabled new Windows updates, so I did the update. After I applied pending updates, it now no longer works on my computer. I cannot check the ActiveX checkboxes any longer, and, as a part of trying to debug, it appears I cannot even add an ActiveX control to any worksheet, even a new worksheet, any more. I get an error dialog that says, "Cannot insert object." (I can still add form controls, just not ActiveX.) Anyone else experiencing this after a recent update? Any suggestions? Thanks, Mike excel vba activex share|improve this question asked Dec 10 '14 at 21:44 Mike Pedersen 563146 what control was it specifically? or do you mean ALL activeX? –peege Dec 10 '14 at 21:48 3 colleagues of mine also seem to have this problem. Their spreadsheets use, I think, ActiveX controls - ComboBoxes and Buttons. One of them had his PC being worked on and thus did not get the updates. When he got it back it successfully ran the controls. That is, until his PC auto updated. Now it doesn't. We also cannot add ActiveX controls to their sheets. –Mitchell Kaplan
