Compile Error in Hidden Module: modAddin (x64) (Office 2003, 2007)

You're here because of this:

modAddin excel compile error in hidden module
...and because you're using a 64-bit system (x64).

The fix, like the 32-bit solution is to un-register and re-register the mscomctl.ocx.

But it's slightly different on a 64-bit system.

The mscomctl.ocx file is located here:

c:\windows\sysWOW64\mscomctl.ocx

Un-register and re-register that file and you'll be gold.

p.s. - Thanks for all the commenters with this.
