This is proving somewhat of a saga.
I first learned that for a while you couldn't do this because the type library containing the List View was only x86 compatible.
But then I read this which seemed to suggest you could do it:

SOLVED: MSCOMCTL.OCX Download & Register on 64 Bit Windows – Up & Running Technologies, Tech How To's

Then this post suggested I needed to run this code:
VBA Code:
cd C:\Windows\SysWOW64
regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx
regtlib msdatsrc.tlb

The regsvr32 command worked, but the regtib exe didn't exist, however I was able to find a copy of regtlibv12.exe from here
Running this against msdatasrc.tlb now worked successfully.
I rebooted and went into Excel - the mscomctl.ocx wasn't listed in References - I had to Browse to it, but when I added it as a reference, I got the error message "can't remove control or reference in use". Neverthless the component now showed up with a tick as Microsoft Common Control Library 6.0 (SP6)

However if I go into Form Additional Controls, List View is not there - none of the mscomctl controls are there.

Anyone able to assist?

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
