Automation error.The server threw an exception.

[tatochka]

I have a VB6 application that calls Excel to read and write data. It worked absolutely fine on Windows 2000 machine. Now I got Windows XP and every time VB tries to call Excel I get the message "Error -2147417851; Description: Automation error. The server threw an exception." I tried everything I could: updated windows, reinstalled Microsoft Office (2003), updated office. Nothing helped.

Can someone help me on this? Thanks.

I could recommend a few places to start. Like, the Excell forum, the VB6 forum, or the Windows XP forum.
