ActiveX Objects Don't Run Code When Clicked after installing SP3 for 2007

I have an application that I built using Excel 2013 for a client who uses Excel 2007. Up until mid-December of last year, the application ran fine on the client's machines.    Today we found that their version does not work - specifically,
clicking an ActiveX command button does not result in code running.  Of course, we double-checked to make sure macros were enabled etc.  We tested other files and got the same result. We tried running them off of thumb drives, to no avail. We
then learned from their IT guy that a MS security patch, 2984942, was installed on 12/12.  Has anyone experienced any issues running VBA code in either 2007 or 2013 after installing that patch? What am I missing?
Thanks in Advance.

Yes, recent update in December broke ActiveX objects in Office. Solution is simple. Close all instances of Excel and other Office products. Do a wild card search for "exd" files (not exe !).  Delete all the exd files.

  • After installing SP3 for BO XI R1 - Crystal Reports taking forever to run.

    Hello,
    We are running BO XI R1 SP3.  Ever since installing SP3 a number of our scheduled Crystal Reports are taking forever to run.  The Business Objects server resources are okay, CPU never really gets above 50% so I figure perhaps it's our SQL Server.
    We run SQL 2005 and CPU on that hovers around 30%, we've got 4 2.6GHz CPUs with 16GB of RAM.  Looking in SQL Server activity monitor the reason the reports are taking some time is that the wait types are generally CXPACKET.
    For example a report used to process in a minute however after installing SP3 the report now takes several hours.  Since we've 4 CPU's on our SQL Server activity monitor creates four sessions for the report to try and process it in parallel.  However all of those four sessions have a wait type of CXPACKET.  This I understand is related to parallelism and people have said to reduce that so nothing runs in parallel.
    However I should not have to do that as things used to run just fine, there is no physical reason (i.e. RAM / CPU / HDD) that reports are locked waiting in SQL server.  Has anyone else had this issue or have any suggestions on how to fix please?
    Kind regards,
    Chris Rutherford

    XIR2 has two different redistributable MSI packages.  One is compatable with 1.1 framwork applications and the other is compatable with 2.0 framework applications.
    try downloading the SP3 MSIs from [here|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009656792008E/crxir2sp3_net_si.zip]
    this will have both MSIs
    - CrystalReports11_5_NET.msi          (for 1.1fwk applications)
    - CrystalReports11_5_net_2005.msi   (for 2.0fwk applications)
    rename the CrystalReports11_5_net_2005.msi to CrystalRedist115_x86.msi and replace the existing file in the Bootstrapper folder path
    Uninstall the last install, rebuild and try your Click-Once install again.  This time you should have the 11.5.3700.0 runtime.

  • I receive the following error message when trying to install QuickTime for Windows "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."

    I recieve the following error message when trying to install Quicktime for Windows "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."  I just trying to get the latest version of iTunes.  Thanks

    "Error writing to file C:/Program Files/QuickTime/QTSystems/QuickTimeCheck.ocx. Verify that you have access to that directory."
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • After installing "Java for OS X 2013-004" update, Java apps don't work anymore as expected

    After installing "Java for OS X 2013-004" update, Java apps don't work anymore as expected.
    Windows of Swing apps don't display all GUI elements.
    After replacing System/Library/Java from a Time MAchine Backup, everything works normal again.
    Is this update corrupted?

    "avoid using Java in a web browser at all,..."
    Good advice.
    "...old Java apps/applets that aren't written to modern specs ..."
    The stand-alone Java Swing applications, that don't display their GUI elements after installing this update, have been written according to modern standards. With Oracle Java7, and with Java6 from Apple prior to this update, they run absolutely flawlessly.
    This is absolutely Apple's fault.

  • Run code when a radio button is clicked

    I have a radio group with various radio buttons in there
    named date, time,
    reg etc
    When I click on a button I need the following:
    Which radio button was pressed
    The value of that button eg date, time, reg etc
    Then run some code (I will use the value to run a MYSQL
    query)
    The idea is to be able to sort a table based on the header
    that was clicked.
    Cheers

    Thanks for the help so far.
    I am using dreamweaver 8. ASP VBScript
    I would rather not use javascript as our operators have PDA's
    and we are
    trying to use the same interface for everyone.
    What I am trying to do is re-sort a Table by either reg,
    date, user order
    etc. by clicking on the radio buttons.
    The table is populated with MYSQL have a look at
    http://80.5.54.164/swiff/contact.asp
    user 1 password 1
    Unless there is another way to achieve this

  • Missing plugin for Quicktime but when click on install missing plugin, it says is updated. Cannot hear sound on my work sms site any longer.

    On work sms text site - sound no longer is available. It indicates missing plugun for Quicktime. When clicking on the tab to install missing plugin, Firefox appears to install. Upon checking, all plugins are up to date but sound still no longer works.

    The longer this thread continues, the more ancillary comments you throw in that aren't directly pertinent to your problem with your DVR software not working with Firefox 4.0. Sorry, I don't intend to continue with this discussion.
    I do agree that ''something'' needs to be done better with regards to plugins for Firefox, but I do disagree with you as to whose responsibility that ''something'' is.

  • Unable to reinstall OS X Mountain Line Apple ID and Password verified but when click to install ID and Password reappear.

    Re-installation of OS X Mountain Line.
      Apple ID and Password is verified and correct installation disk is indicated.
    After click on "INSTALL"  Apple ID and Password verificatrion re-appears.
    I've changed ID and Password but to no avail am I allowed to continuie installation.
    What is possible going on ?????

    Eric,
    None of this has worked.
    My Apple ID and password work with everything else. I have a good Internet connection. No Firewall active from my IMac.
    LIke I said, I haven't installed anything recently and FaceTime ver. 1.0.5 on OS X 10.6.8 was working fine prior to yesterday.
    I restarted my IMac to run Mavericks and FaceTime 3.0 under OS X 10.9.4 is working and I was able to login and use FaceTime on Mavericks with no problem.
    For some unknown reason FaceTime on IOS and on my Mac were asking me to login into FaceTime when I haven't had to do this for quite sometime.
    Older FaceTime 1.0.5 all of a sudden has decided to be a problem with login on my IMac under Snow Leopard.
    The only thing left I am going to try is the two-step Apple ID verification process where I can use a app specific password, but Apple makes you wait three days before completing the two-step verification.
    If this doesn't work, then I do not know what will solve this issue and now I made my Apple ID login process more complicated than I really wanted it to be.
    I purposely stayed away from using the two-step ID verification login.
