Help!! Problem instantiating WORD object using C#.

handymulia · June 1st, 2005, 08:57 PM

Hi experts,

I am trying to open the content of a WORD file from C#.NET which resides in the REMOTE SERVER, however, when declaring new Word.ApplicationClass(), I get an error:

"System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Server execution failed"

When I see the event viewer in the web server, the error is:
"The server did not register with DCOM within the required timeout. "

string fileName = this.btnWorkOrder1.Value;
object readOnly = false;
object isVisible = false;
object saveChanges = false;
object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
object dynamic = 2;

//error here:
Word.ApplicationClass oWordApp = new Word.ApplicationClass();

Word.Document oWordDoc = oWordApp.Documents.Open(ref file, ref missing, ref readOnly, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
ref missing, ref missing, ref isVisible);

Does anybody know how to solve it? Please help I'm desperate!!!

Thanks alot!!!

I use the following code

Code:

Word.ApplicationClass MyWord = new Word.ApplicationClass();
object fileName = @"E:\Ganesh\MyDesktop\CSharp.doc";
object readOnly = false;

object isVisible = true;

object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
MyWord.Visible = true;

Word.Document aDoc = MyWord.Documents.Open(ref fileName, ref missing,ref readOnly, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref isVisible);
aDoc.Activate();

MyWord.Selection.TypeText("Test Text");
MyWord.Selection.TypeParagraph();

Hope it helps

Regards
Ganesh

But I am still Facing the problem
i.e. No Overload for method 'Open' takes '12' Aguments

My Code

            object filename="c:\nik.doc";
            object readOnly = false;
            object isVisible= true;
            object missing=System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
            Word.ApplicationClass oWordApp = new Word.ApplicationClass();
            Word.Document oWordDoc= oWordApp.Documents.Open(ref filename, ref missing,ref readOnly, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref isVisible);

        oWordDoc.Activate();
            oWordApp.Selection.TypeText("Hello Nikhil");
            oWordApp.Selection.TypeText("Welcome To Word Automation");
            oWordDoc.Save();
            oWordApp.Application.Quit(ref missing,ref missing,ref missing);
