Find and remove or rewrite the line of code that causes the problem.


Without more specific information, including enough code to understand what
you're doing, it's impossible to give a more specific answer than that.

2002 can be nasty. There are several things that will cause it to just crash
... no error messages or anything. It just dies.

MS doesn't recommend automating any Office programs on the server:

Server busy ... hmmm.

PowerPoint only allows one instance of itself. If you've got several processes
going on the server and each of them tries to control PowerPoint, I don't think
it'll work; and you'd probably get some kind of Server Busy message as a
result.

You have to let the processes invoke powerpoint one at a time. Serialize the
requests, in other words.

As I mentioned before, you haven't given us any details to work with, just said
that it doesn't work with 2002.

Without more detailed information, all I can suggest is: if it hurts when you
do that, don't do that any more.
