Thanks, I am running CF MX.

So I guess, either I go back to CF 5.0 or I start using asp for this
project.  

Someone else on the list has suggested using a cfc they are working
with.  I will try that.

David

David,

One big question -- CFMX or CF5 (or 4.5)?

CFMX uses the jIntegra Java-COM bridge which is doesn't like poorly
written
COM objects (objects that work just fine in ASP). And it doesn't like
some
perfectly fine COM objects :) Tough job running COM under Java.

If you're using ColdFusion 5, one question is do you have a
multi-processor
server? I've had a devil of a time with some COM objects under
ColdFusion
(and ASP for that matter) when moving from single to dual/quad processor
machines. Something about threading and the threading model chosen for
the
COM object. Been a long time since I did COM so I'll leave the details
for
someone else.

When I've had similar COM problems before, I've gone as far as getting
debug
builds from the vendor -- usually we're talking source code change. But
then
again, maybe it just needs regsrv32 and a reboot :)

I'd try it on another server/machine before I wasted a lot of time with
anything else.
