    Cannot insert object

    Hi All

    I have been using excel 2007 for a number of years now, and occasionally I insert Active X controls onto my worksheet,
    but recently, and I could say about a week ago, inserting an Active X control, eg. a command button, comes up with the message
    'Cannot insert object', the worksheet is unprotected, and I have checked the references for anything 'missing',

    has anyone else experience this problem?


    regards
    Craig

    This ha been a problem since the last microsoft update.

    Easily solved apparently.
