Paolo, If, as you say, a "major" component of the website uses COM, then I would be very cautious moving away from CF 5. CFMX is a mediocre COM platform at best. It's ok for CDONTs but I wouldn't site that is heavily dependent on COM on a CFMX server.

In accessing the COM with code that works fine in CF 5 we get: "An exception occurred when instantiating a Com object. The cause of this exception was that: AutomationException: 0x80010105 - The server threw an exception..
