Firstly, you're in the wrong newsgroup. This is an ASP.NET question, and
should have been posted to microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet
Anyway...
Secondly, it's really important for you to understand that server-side
automation of Office is not supported at all by Microsoft, and is highly
unlikely to work in a networked environment:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...US;q257757#kb2
The fact that you may have got it working locally is neither here nor
there...
Thirdly, if you are simply wanting to stream a Word document to a client
browser, then it won't matter whether Word is installed on the server or
not, unless you're trying to do something else other than document
streaming.
Fourthly, your client machines will need to have a local copy of Word (or
the Word Viewer) installed otherwise they won't be able to view the document
natively.
