ID: 32133 Comment by: taylor dot ren at gmail dot com Reported By: fLAre_Dra_X at yahoo dot com Status: No Feedback Bug Type: COM related Operating System: Windows XP SP 2 PHP Version: 5.0.1 New Comment:
Acknowledged that the above solution works fine in Vista. But there is a new error message when I tried: $doc=$word->Documents->Add(); it says: Word is unable to trigger event. I have Office 2003 installed. I guess it is due to the Add method is not the corrrect method name. Any hints? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-03 13:31:17] ozovadia at hotmail dot com Here is a possible solution: Verify that the user has the appropriate permissions to start the DCOM server. 1. In the Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Component Services. 2. In the Component Services snap-in, expand Computers, expand My Computer, and double-click DCOM Config. 3. In the right pane, locate the program you are trying to create. 4. Right-click the program name, and then select Properties. On the Security tab, in the Launch and Activation Permissions group box, select Customize, and then click Edit. 5. Add the user (e.g. running the IIS server) to the permissions list, and give the user the appropriate permissions. That should do it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-03 12:06:55] ozovadia at hotmail dot com Installed the latest version (5.1.1.1) and still experiencing the same problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-03-20 18:10:26] [EMAIL PROTECTED] No feedback was provided.
