Why does MATLAB 6.5 (R13) crash when certain Windows COM controls are created?

1 view (last 30 days)
Certain COM controls that come with Windows will cause MATLAB to crash when I try to use them inside MATLAB 6.5 (R13).
For example, here are some of the controls I have tried to create:
h = actxcontrol('mschart20lib.mschart')
h = actxcontrol('msdatalistlib.datacombo')
h = actxcontrol('msdatagridlib.datagrid')
h = actxcontrol('msdatalistlib.datalist')
h=actxcontrol('MSComCtl2.DTPicker.2')
h=actxcontrol('msdatarepeaterlib.datarepeater')
h=actxcontrol('MSHierarchicalFlexGridLib.MSHFlexGrid.6')
A Windows Application Error dialog comes up, saying the following:
The exception unknown software exception (0xc00000fd) occured in the application at location 0x77f8299a.
After hitting 'OK', MATLAB disappears.
This did not happen in MATLAB v6.1 (R12.1).
