Hello,

I'm trying to read a PDF file and save it to an excel workbook.  I'm getting the following error:

Run-time error '429'
ActiveX component can't be created

These are the versions of applications I'm using:

Windows - 64 bit, Version 8.1
MS Office 365
MS Excel 2013 MS 32-bit
Microsoft Visual Basic for Application 7.1

ADOBE "READER" XI is 11.0.11 - basic no conversion.

Can someone help me get around this error?  As much detail as possible would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance,

For most automation tasks with PDF, you need Acrobat, not the free Reader.  That might be part of the problem.

You might want to post the relevant part of your code and indicate exactly where the error message occurs.
