Service Pack 2 Office 2010 KB2687455 ActiveX controls do not work

Hi

I have 2 independent Excel programs (commercial products) that do not work when this update is installed. They both failed at an ActiveX control.

In the first program, an icon is embedded in a Worksheet. This program has literally 100's of Form Controls that all work OK but only the one ActiveX control:

=EMBED("Forms.Image.1","")

I have had to bypass this Control to get the program working again.

The second program had 2 ActiveX buttons:

=EMBED("Forms.CommandButton.1","")

I changed these to Form Controls and the program again works perfectly.

Trust centre settings for ActiveX controls did not appear to have any affect.

As a test, with a new Workbook, I tried to insert an ActiveX control in a new worksheet but I cannot!
