Unspecified automation error when launching Excel with the BAM add-in enabled

Right when I needed to make a change in a hurry to a BAM Activity, I started throwing an "Unspecified Automation Error" on two of my three development machines when launching Excel with the BAM add-in.  Excel would launch, throw the error, then launch a VBA window.  While I got my change in on the third (unaffected) machine, I finally got some time to circle back to this.  From the post below, a recent patch caused this issue, but at least it's understood and only requires re-registering MSCOMCTL.OCX.
