Cannot open word application

[Nekroces]

Hi everyone.

I have a problem trying to open an Office Application from my asp.net pages.

My code is:

 

Dim oWord As Word.Application

oWord = Server.CreateObject("Word.Application")

 

When i run it, the compliler displays this message:

 

Access is denied.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

 

Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied.

 

The ASP.NET process is not authorized to access the requested resource. For security reasons the default ASP.NET process identity is '{machinename}\ASPNET', which has limited privileges. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET process identity.

 

To grant ASP.NET write access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the "{machinename}\ASPNET" user. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the Write box in the Allow column.

 

Can anybody help me?

Thanks

try this... (I'm quoting from your post by the way)

Which file?

 

Thanks for your help

I've alredy tried this in the entire folder where my pages are but i think that i have to change the properties in some other file.

Can you tell me what file?
