Welcome to TSDN!

I've changed the thread title to better describe the problem.

Most likely this error is caused by the ActiveX not being allowed to run. Have a look at this thread and see if it helps.

You need to install latest MSXML parser service pack on the client machine, you can install the same from the below link

Hi jaweed it is giving the same error again.

You will have to change your security settings to allow the ActiveX control to run.

Set "Initialize and script ActiveX control not
marked as safe" in the Internet Options to Enable. This fix worked for me.
