Thanks, Ted.
I do recall issues with older versions of Office and One Click or Click to
Install mode being strongly discouraged although I don't think there's any
other now to install Office. It's a bit annoying that I had to dump Access and
Visio to get it to work but it was a better solution than hours of registry
hacking.

Well, never mind.

For anyone following along, I've managed to make it past the most basic of
problems with object creation. Looks like I had some registry conflict because
I had parts of Office 2010 installed (Access, Visio). I uninstalled 2010 which
then completely broke COM. Finally I followed that up with a quick repair of
O2016 and could once again create COM objects. Now I can go back to working on
the thing that I really wanted to do.

Subject: COM Automation problem with Word 2016
Whilst I bang away at this on my own I figured I should throw it out to the
collective wisdom. I noticed recently that both CreateObject and NewObject are
failing to instantiate an object for Word 2016. GetObject works fine to
retrieve a running instance. Excel works fine.
oo=CREATEOBJECT([word.application])
results in OLE error code 0x80080005: Server execution failed.
Google fu has failed me so far. If anyone here has had success automating Word
2016, please share your magic tricks.
Thanks.
