I'm doing a server side automation(I know it's bad but..) and its working
fine locally and when accessing it from a remote machine using web browser is
was giving me this error"Retrieving the COM class factory for component with
CLSID
{000209FF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} failed due to the following error:
80070005". so I configured the server using dcomcnfg as described in this
link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/288368/
and know this error now is gone but I'm having this error:"Object reference
not set to an instance of an object." when it comes to the last line of this
code:
Object oName = "C:\\improvement.doc";
Word.Application wrdApp;
Word._Document wrdDoc;
wrdApp = new Word.Application();
wrdDoc = wrdApp.Documents.Add(ref oName, ref oFalse,
ref oMissing, ref oMissing);
wrdDoc.Select();

So, Why it's telling me that wrdDoc.Select(); "is not set to an instance of
an object." when it's accessed from a remote machine but not when running it
locally in debug mode!!?

OK, let me get this straight - you are doing something which you already
know to be patently stupid, and now you are wondering why it doesn't
work...?

Sigh - because when you're running it all locally on the same machine, it's
not doing server-side automation - don't you get it...???
