RE: [PHP-WIN] COM objects win2000 PHP4.02

After changing the permissions using dcomcnfg.exe, it is working. I never knew that existed.. Thanks Alan!

What are the permissions on the directory containing winword.exe and on the exectuable itself? It could be instatitation permsisions (which are stored in the registry - see dcomcnfg.exe) or on the exectuable.
