Excel runtime error 32809 suddenly

How odd this has happened to me all of a sudden.  Something has caused a macro enabled spreadsheet to suddenly produce this error.  Fortunately someone has already experienced the samething and has posted this fix at

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27591879/suddenly-several-vba-macro-errors-mostly-32809

We found success using the following approach.

1. Open a blank version of excel.
2. Disable ActiveX controls in Excel Options.

3. Open the offending file. (Click through any error received upon open)
4. Save the file as a new name.
5. Activate ActiveX controls.

We found distributing this file after the steps above resolved the error for all users.

Hope this helps someone else.

Really does work.  As if the Active X settings have corrupted the file.
