MATLAB: Do I receive a “Run-Time Error 429” when I try to use Spreadsheet Link EX with Excel

Spreadsheet Link

I have properly installed MATLAB and Spreadsheet Link EX but when I launch Excel I get a runtime error 429.

Best Answer

This error can occur if the automation server for Excel Link was not registered properly. Reregistering can fix the issue.
You can do this by using the following command at the MATLAB Command Prompt:
!matlab -regserver
Equivalently, you can execute the following in the Windows Command Prompt:
matlab -regserver
If you are using a Windows version that includes User Account Control (e.g. Windows Vista or Windows 7), you may need to start the Command Prompt with elevated privileges. You can right click on the Command Prompt shortcut and choose "Run as Administrator".
