Problem MS Word UDD

robleer

Hi, I'm trying User Defined Documents. It works great, but when I use a MS Word document (.docx) and run the process rule

PICK FROM QryUserDefDocs
DISPLAY DOCUMENT UserDefDoc.UDD_Name

I get:

Internal error. Can't get object clsid from progid

Anyone who knows what causes this???

I am using exactly the same two commands with no issue. I know, no help, put it's not these two commands causing the trouble.

I thought that problem sounded eerily familiar...

Doesn't sounds like you need this now, but here are some tips I put together a few years about about UDD:

Ok, I'm found out that MS Word has to be installed on the server. I think thats causing the problem. We never install MS Office products on webservers, but we will do this to found out if this is causing the problem.

Maybe a good idea to put this in the Aware documentation.

I am pretty sure this is documented...
