This problem may occur if you omit the Range argument from the command line
that inserts the ActiveX control.
For example, the following Visual Basic for Applications command line
inserts an inline ActiveX control at the insertion point:
Selection.InlineShapes.AddOLEControl ClassType:="Forms.CheckBox.1", _
Range:=Selection.Range
If you omit the Range argument, as in the following example,
Selection.InlineShapes.AddOLEControl ClassType:="Forms.CheckBox.1"

active when you run the command.
