Accpac Run-time error ‘429’: ActiveX component can’t create object

I saw this error message: Microsoft Visual Basic – Run-time error ‘429’: ActiveX component can’t create object when trying to run a report in Accpac. When I went to open the GL Statement Designer and hit start it opens Excel 2010. It’s not until I get into Excel that the error pops up.

After you close this window Accpac will pop up another error:

To Fix the Accpac Run-time error ‘429’: ActiveX component can’t create object error you must follow these steps:

Go to this file:

• C:\Program Files\Sage Software\Sage Accpac\Runtime\RegAcc.exe
• Run this file as Administrator

Once that runs

• Open Excel
• File-options
• Add-ins – Go – Select the file:
• C:\Program Files\Sage Software\Sage Accpac\GL55A\accpacfr550.xla

This is what it should look like after you installed it.
