Automation problem migrating from W2K -> 2003

[davem99]

I had an ASP app that worked fine under W2K - it opens Word, does its thing then closes.

But, under 2003 it's not happy. when I call server.createobject("word.application")

it gives me "The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions. Access is denied to this object."

I've used DCOMCONFG to set the indentity of the word app to be the administrator.

Any input much appreciated!!!

Are you using the default of anonymous access within IIS? If so then compare the privilages of the IUSR_MachineName accounts on your boxen.
