Ok, I found this Ms article

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q147134

Which is a workaround for the problem. Apparently you can not create an
ActiveX control straigt away due to OLE Class properties that are
missing..

Subject: [AccessD] URGENT: Creating Actiive-X control on form

Hi
 
I seem to be stuck on this one.
 
I want to create a Active-X control on a form from VBA code.
In my example down here I want a Excel control but, in my code I will
create multiple types of Active-X controls.
The thing is my code does'nt seem to work, altough I believe it should.
The control just stays an empty frame.
 
What am I missing here?
 
Sub DoIT ()
 
    Dim frm As Form
    Dim ctlTemp As Control
    
    Set frm = CreateForm
    frm.Visible = True
    
    Set ctlTemp = CreateControl(frm.Name, acCustomControl, , , , 10, 10,
5000, 500)
    ctlTemp .Class = "Excel.Sheet"    ' Set class name.
                                       
    Set frm = Nothing
    Set ctlTemp = Nothing

end sub
