Why do I get a VBA error running scriptcontrol on excel 64bit?

Question

I am not tech savy at all but use a workbook created by an old employee. I am getting errors while running a excel VBA script control macro. Colleagues who are still on 32bit done face this issue, but myself who uses 64bit gets an error.

Private ScriptEngine As scriptControl

Public Sub InitScriptEngine()
    Set ScriptEngine = CreateObject("MSScriptControl.ScriptControl")
        ScriptEngine.Language = "JScript"
        ScriptEngine.Reset

The debugger stops at the

 Set ScriptEngine = CreateObject("MSScriptControl.ScriptControl")

Any help would be great. Thanks

I have read elsewhere that Script control will not work on 64 bit is that true?
