Error message when doing Word merge on a website.

Post by Marianne Wyatt »

We have a server in a colocation with AwareIM on it. We have a website where we are currently testing the app. for use by a client. I have a Word mail merge set up with an operation on a form. I get the error message: Error! Internal Error. Can't get object clsid from progid. Word is not on the server. Does it need to be? I'm assuming the app. on the server uses the user's local copy of Word and does not need to be on the server? It works on my local PC, even when I import the bsv file from the server. Thanks.

Yes, Word needs to be on the server - it does not use the local copy. This error message is precisely because there is no Word installed.
