Hi,
Got a windows Service which run under LOCAL SYSTEM account.
Its main goal is to printout xls file to pdf.

It seems that LOCAL SYSTEM account has not enough rights to do that (as
launching the same code in a windows app works great)

Is there a way to launch my Excel.Automation object in another thread
which will use another user account with enoug right to perform the
tasks ?

Thks for help.
 
Simply run your service under an account that has the appropriate
permissions.
 
I changed to my user account.
I unregistered/registered the service and it's no longer visible in my
service list! normal ?
