Seems like the 0x5 and 0x80070005 errors are not exactly the same. FYI, I have changed the logon credential all the CF services to a domain user with administrative privileges on the server. Still no dice. :( Same predicament as the poster a year ago. :( James. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Howie Hamlin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, April 12, 2002 5:41 AM Subject: Re: <cfset a.b = c> --> COM error 0x80070005.

Although this isn't a COM error per se, it is seen largely when using COM objects by client services (i.e., ColdFusion) that do not have sufficient access to an object. By default, ColdFusion is given access to the local system account, which on NT and 2000 will not allow you to run many objects, such as the ones provided by MS Office. To fix this problem, one way is to assign ColdFusion services administrative access. Go to your "Services" control panel in NT or 2000 (you shouldn't get 'Access Denied' on 95 or 98). Next, you have to alter the 3 services' logon properties in the services control panel. To do this, on each ColdFusion service (ColdFusion Application Server, ColdFusion Executive, and ColdFusion RDS), right-click, choose "Properties", and then you'll see a tab at the top labeled "Log On". Click it, and you will then see "This Account", which is a radio button. Click the "This Account" button then click "Browse" to choose who to logon as, at which point you need to choose "Administrator". On Windows NT, in the Services applet under the Control Panel, select the service and click on the "Startup" button (or double-click on the service). In the "Log On As:" groupbox, select the "This Account:" radio button, enter the account name (you can use the "..." button to browse the account list), and enter the password twice. A good thing to remember is that if the password to the account is ever changed, all services using that account as the logon must be updated or they will mysteriously fail at the next logon/reboot. ----- Original Message ----- From: "James Ang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, April 12, 2002 7:33 AM Subject: <cfset a.b = c> --> COM error 0x80070005.
