I have an application in asp.net where from code I open a powerpoint
presentation and save it to html. It is working well when running on my
computer (after editing in the DCOM locally) but when I deployed to the
server(and changed in the DCOM as I did locally) I got this error Message
below:
Which settings on the server should I edit? Thanks

Most likely a COM error as the Office components are not deployed. Ensure the
Office library is deployed on the server (not normal) or move to a third
party component (even better) for the creation of your HTML Powerpoint.
