    Macros not working for Excel 2003 after re-installing Windows 10 64 bit on clean hard disk

    I'm looking for help with missing controls in Excel 2003 after I had to format my hard drive and re-install Windows 10 64 bit.
    In Tools, References: MISSING: Microsoft Windows Common Controls-2 6.0 (SP6)
    VBA highlights this function "Trim"
    and the whole line is: If Trim(Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(s1Row, 3).Value) <> "P" Then Exit Function

    I have downloaded and ran VisualBasic6-KB896559-v1-ENU
    and typed in the cmd window from the c:\Windows\SysWOW64 folder: regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx
    The PC has been restarted.

    Anyone have a solution?

    Jerry

    edit: error code when running regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx is 0x8002801c

    Solved. The solution to running regsvr32 was to open the cmd window with "Run as administrator".
