Get control return TRASH in Excel 2010 - win7 64bit

A GET CONTROL ( in EXCEL 2010 ) [ windows 7 / 64 bit ] will return some trash / Unknown caracters in the instruction.

 

For exemple, Get Control on the ZONE NAME in excel 2010 will have:

 

=> see problem just after: <GETCONTROL2P:04:

 

<GETCONTROL2P:04:Ä8:XLMAINMicrosoft Excel003:15EXCEL;1ComboBox1Edit>

 

and the get control DONT works when trying to use it...

 

 

Then, I CHANGEND MANUALLY the instruction ( replace Ä8 by EXCEL.EXE ) , like this:

 

<GETCONTROL2P:04:EXCEL.EXE:XLMAINMicrosoft Excel003:15EXCEL;1ComboBox1Edit>

 

and NOW IT WORKS now !

 

This change was quite easy to guess... but depend case... you can spend a lot of time to find out what exactly the text to replace with !

 

 

So, my questions are is :

1)Is there any solution to FIX this problem... and get the CORRECT information in the get control ?

2) I supposed this is an operating system problem ? or , does this could be a macro express 3 problem ?

 

Any solution to try is welcome...

 

Tks to repply. James

 

 

EDIT: 1.nov.2011 => I think it's a general problem with Windows 7 and Me3 ...because I have found same problems trying to catch control from explorer in w7 !
