Hi,

Im having problems getting my PHP to work with COM on a win2003 server,
ive got the same code running on a winxp box with no problems.

$excel = new COM("excel.application") or die("Unable to instanciate
excel");

Excel is installed, if i try and run this line then i get the message :

'Failed to create COM object `excel.application': Access is denied

Tried various other COM objects like word but get the same message so
its not unique to excel.

I dont know why access is denied or what i can do to solve it. COM is
enabled in the php.ini page,


Thanks for any help.

Paul
