Default MSCOMM


Up to now we used the MS Communication Control MSCOMM32.OCX for communication
via RS232 in Excel VBA programs.
Since the Windows Update KB969898 (ActiveX Killbits) we have problems to
insert the MSCOMM. Following error message is coming up: "The subject is not
trusted for the specified action".

Any help is appreciated

Regards
reklamo

Reklamo,

We had exactly the same problem at my work using the same MSCOMM32.OCX
file. I found this which fixed my problem after 2 days of
troubleshooting:

You must install VB 6.0 to be able to run this patch fix. This article
describes which files may be affected by a Windows updated (there are
quite a few library files listed).

Good luck,
Kevin
