“Cannot insert object” error when adding ActiveX control like Microsoft DataGrid to Excel sheet [duplicate]

Answer 1

This solved it for me:

Go to the following registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\COM Compatibility{8856F961-340A-11D0-A96B-00C04FD705A2}

Then set the value data from 400 to 0.

Hope it helps.
