Access problem when calling Excel from a web application

Hello,

My Web application in VB2008 with IIS calls Excel (2003) to create an Excel
file xls. I use therefore Microsoft.Offic e.Interop.Excel , version 11.

This application does not use anonymous connections; it automaticaly uses
the Windows userid.

On my development PC, with local server, everything is OK.

On a test server with IIS and Excel, my program gets an error on the first
statement related to Excel :
Dim ApplicationExce l As New Excel.Applicati on

Error message: Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID
{...} failed due to the following error : 80070005.
Explanations : ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource.
Etc.

What access rights should I grant to what resources ?

Thank you for your help,
Gilbert

You should post to an ASP.Net NG, but what I suspect is that the Aspnet
worker process, which is used by all ASP.NET solutions, it has a machine
user account and it doesn't have the permissions.

Thank you Paul. I suppose like you, but I do not know what permissions I
have to grant to ASP.NET

Microsoft continues to publish numerous articles and videos on how you...

This uses GetRows that nicely creates an array that can be passed into excel. I have this data table for testing. The table name is TestData ...

Greetings This is one of those Access is not closing Excel problems. The first time through the code works fine. The second time there is a problem. After lots of combinations, I finally determined that if I take out the line that copies the temp array to cells in a worksheet, Access will close the Excel file. If the line is there, Excel remains open and blocks more runs of the same procedure. If I close Access, Excel gets closed. Looks like...
