I am converting some VBA applications to Web versions. They will run VBScript on Web pages hosted on a server. The problem is Word is considered to be an unsafe ActiveX control and current security settings prevent that code from running. Additionally, users are prohibited by security policy from manually changing this. How can Word be made safe to run this code?

In addition you should be aware that if you are including Word in a web application, you may be breaching the conditions of your license to use it, and also that Word is not designed to run in an unattended server-side mode - if it errors, it will put up a message box and wait for somebody to come and clear it. -- Regards Jonathan West - Word MVP www.intelligentdocuments.co.uk Please reply to the newsgroup
