asp.net 2.0 word automation issue

Hi,

The problem I am posting here is that I was facing nearly 2 weeks around. Any body comes with this stuff please help.

Word Automation in sample ASP.NET(C#) application.

I am using Microsoft.Office.Inetrop.Word Assembly for automation. Here I am reading a XXX.dot template file and fill the contents with dynamic data.

When i am executing my code in localhost:someportnumber the automation is working fine and I could get expected result and when I am hosting in my inetmgr(Windows XP is my OS) it is also working fine.

But the problem is that when I am hosting in my production server(Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition) I am not able to perform automation and results in the following error.

Data: System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal
Message: Word has encountered a problem.
Source: Microsoft Word

The code gets failed in the following line:

ApplicationClass wordApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass();

Document wordDoc = wordApp.Documents.Add(ref oTemplate, ref oFalse, ref oMissing, ref oMissing); // Error in this line

I cannot able to proceed further. Can anybody please help me in solving this issue?

Thank you.

With Regards,

Ashok

That notwithstanding, here is my problem.  I have developed a simple method that will open a local Word document, modify some header information, and then save the document as a new file.  As expected, it works great as a console/windows app, but as soon as I went to ASP.NET, DCOM jacked my world up when accessing the app remotely from a different domain account (that has access to the ASP.NET app.  For reference, my method is shown below:

1    public static string ModifyAndSaveBuildDocument(string localFilePath, BuildDocumentType docType, string buildNumber, DateTime buildDate, string projectName)
2            {
3                try
4                {
5                    ProjectConfiguration config = (ProjectConfiguration)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("ProjectConfiguration");
6    

Subject is the question.

Background:

My requirements are to "maintain existing functionality with current version of a windows service running on Server 2003 and automating Word through COM."   I.E. All the stuff that breaks when you upgrade the OS to Server 2008.  

My customer has already rejected several third party alternatives as "not being accurate enough"  The rendered PDF doesn't match what comes out of Word when compared with an electron microscope.

So now I'm investigating using Word Automation Services and Sharepoint 2010.   Got my development server functional with Sharepoint 2010 and Visual Studio 2010.  But my first attempts at creating rendering jobs is failing with an "ArgumentNullException" in deep inside a method I'm 100.0% sure I'm NOT passing any NULL's to. 

My VM is low on space so I figure I'd save time by asking for a conclusive answer before I make room / install Office.

We are exporting a SSRS report in Word. The last colum is getting displayed without its right side vertical bar. Data is also getting trim. Please let us know the solution on this.

Hi all,

I am been having trouble with finding an answer to this question but here goes:

Is there any way to write to MSWORD without automation through ASP.NET in C# (maybe write to an existing word document without opening it)?

I am pulling my hair out! I have tried adding IUSR, ASPNET to the web server, I have tried Identity Impersonate = True in the web.config.

My code for opening word looks like this:

object isVisible = true;
object readOnly = true;

I get a Macro storage error on the open statement. I have put a lot of time into figuring this out and I really dont want to do a TOTAL 180.

wordDoc = WordObj.Documents.Open2000(ref fileName, ref missing, ref readOnly, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref isVisible);


I appreciate any ideas or suggestions given! 

 Thank you in advance!

Hi there,

          I have created fairy simple report having a table in body section and Header, Footer. I have set the Report Properties

Orientation - Landscape

Paper Size - Custom

Width - 11in & Height - 8 in

Margins - Left 0.25 in , Right 0.25 in, Top 0.5 in, Botton 0.5 in

Issue NO 1: When i export the report to Excel, it takes margin as Left 0.75 in , Right 0.75 in, Top 1 in, Botton 1 in, because of this some part of my Report is cut. what should i do to keep margins of Excel as per margins set in RDL.

Issue No 2: In Footer excel shows Page 1 of 1 for all the pages

Expression used :

=

"Page" & Globals!PageNumber & " of " & Globals!TotalPages;

Issue No 3: when i export the Report to word, it does not consider landscape and show only middle part of report, cut rest of the report data.

Hi there,

I have deployed my Web Application (.Net framework 2.0) on Windows Server-2003 STD Edition SP2

and i have also given the Administrator impersonation into web.config

"<identity impersonate="true" userName="user-name" password="password"/>"

and am developing and Word Automation Application which contains only 3 lines of code for time being

 object oMissing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
 Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass oWord = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass();
 oWord.Quit(ref oMissing, ref oMissing, ref oMissing);

with the referenc library Microsoft.Ofiice.Interop.Word

which works fine into local system when given with impersonation,   but when deployed the same application onto server and i have also given the server Administrator impersonation but also its not allowing me to access the COM factory and its throwing me the error as

Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {000209FF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} failed due to the following error: 80040154.
