Security Error Attempting to Create Outlook Object in .NET

[sakieboy]

When attempting to load an Oulook Object in ASP.Net (VB) I get the foloowing
error on the Server:

System.Security .SecurityExcept ion: Request for the permission of type
System.Security .Permissions.Se curityPermissio n, mscorlib, Version=1.0.500 0.0,
Culture=neutral , PublicKeyToken= b77a5c561934e08 9 failed.

Here's the code
Dim objOutlook As New Outlook.Applica tion
Dim objOutlookMsg As Outlook.MailIte m
objOutlook = CreateObject("O utlook.Applicat ion")
objOutlookMsg =
objOutlook.Crea teItem(Outlook. OlItemType.olMa ilItem)
With objOutlookMsg
.Recipients.Add (RecipientEmail )
.Subject = _MAIL_SUBJECT
.HTMLBody = strStaticBody
.Display()
End With
objOutlookMsg = Nothing
objOutlook = Nothing
I have a reference to the DLL

sakieboy,
Outlook is not designed to be run from an ASP.NET app!

| .Display()
Will attempt to display the outlook form on the server itself. If you are
attempting to display the user's Outlook client, then I would recommend
rethinking what you are doing as that is extremely virus like!
To simply send an email on the server I would recommend:

System.Web.Mail (.NET 1.x) :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...temwebmail.asp

http://www.systemwebmail.com/

or System.Net.Mail (.NET 2.0) instead:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib....net.mail.aspx

And to be more exact on why you are getting the error you are getting.
The asp.net user does not have permission to open outlook.
