Permission problem when opening excel file from ASP

I have an ASP page that hangs on this line, unless the
user is in the SERVER\Administrators group. As soon as I
add a user to this group, the ASP page works just fine,
otherwise it will sit on this line forever. Everyone has
full control to the file and folder that the template is
in. Running on Win2k and IIS and Excel 2000.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

appXLS.Workbooks.Open Server.MapPath("ChangeOrderLog.xlt")

This may not get an answer in microsoft.public.excel.programming
newsgroup since I don't think we have experts in ASP and security here.

You might well do better in a group such as
microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.general
or
microsoft.public.inetserver.iis.security
