I have an application that connects to a database, retrieves some data, and uses that data to populate a Word template. The application runs fine locally but I am getting an error when it is run from the server.
The MS Office products used in the application all run locally and only the template is on the server.

Thanks for any suggestions.
 
Solved

I found my problem. I had compiled the application on a machine with Office 2003 installed and some of the users have older versions of the Office suite.
To get around this I got a copy of Office 2000, copied out the MSWORD9.OLB file, and using TlbImp.exe built a new word interop dll, and used this instead of the word dll on my machine.
