Installing this did not make any difference regarding the MSCOMCTL.OCX file in the Windows system directories mentioned above. At the time of writing, I got the Version 2003 of Access 2016/365.

Then I installed the 64bit Edition of Microsoft 365 Click-to-Run (C2R). The 64bit TreeView with Access 365 (and 2019) If I try to insert an ActiveX Control into an Access form there is no Microsoft TreeView Control available in the list of installed ActiveX Controls. With a default installation of Microsoft Access 2013 64bit there is neither a MSCOMCTL.OCX file in C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\ (this is the system directory of the 32bit subsystem!) nor in C:\Windows\System32 (the default 64bit system directory). I’m very certain that the operating system is not relevant in this context and it will not matter whether this is done on Windows 7, 8 or 10.

I started my investigation with an installation of Microsoft Access 2013 64bit in Windows 8.1 (64bit). No 64bit TreeView with Access 2013 (and 2010)

Add 64-bit support for mscomctl.ocx, allowing users working in 64-bit versions of Office to create, edit, and open macro files containing the Common Controls.Īs there still is ongoing confusion on how to install and use the 64bit Edition of the Microsoft Common Controls, I decided to investigate the issues and write down my findings.
