You use OLE Automation on the client side. Microsoft does not
recommend server side usage of the Office products. Also, you will
have to change the security of the browser to in "Initialize and
script ActiveX controls not marked as safe" to either "Prompt" or
"Enable."

You can use Javascript or VBScript to open the Office Application.
