I want to use
objExcel := ComObjActive("Excel.Application")
Connection already open the excel
Sometimes success, sometimes fail
Hence, I through test to find out
If XLS files and open by double-clicking excel, connection succeeds
But, if by double-clicking excel.exe open excel 2010, then connection failure
Error: 0x800401E3 - Operation cannot use

This is not an AHK problem, it is related to the problem described by Microsoft here.
Somebody asked about this exact problem a day or two ago and the problem was that when their script was run it attempted to get an Excel instance right away, but they didn't always have a running instance of Excel when they started their script. You may want to post your script so we can see what may be causing it, but it is not an error on the part of AHK.
