My script is crashing when trying to access different software via actxserver.

Excel is readily accessible via excel = actxserver('excel.application');

New software, Accurate Technologies, ATI Vision, is failing via :

RecFile = actxserver('Vision.RecorderFile'); with an error message of :

Error using feval

Server Creation Failed: Server execution failed

Error in actxserver (line 87)

h=feval(['COM.' convertedProgID], 'server', machinename, interface);

Are you using 32 MATLAB or 64 bit MATLAB? Is the Vision COM object 32 bit or 64 bit?

Also, are you able to launch the COM server from outside MATLAB? Perhaps this is an OS issue?
