ASP.Net User

ive been developing an application in ASP.Net and have hit a brick wall

I need my application to open word on the server edit some bookmarks, print
the document then save and close
i have no problem with being able to do this in code (as i have done it
before in VB)

the problem im having is that when i execute my code i get an ACCESS DENIED
error

after doing some research on the web into this problem i cam across a
solution i dont understand (My IIS isnt brilliant):

By searching HKCR for 00020906-0000-0000-C000-000000000046, I
figured out
that Word is incorrectly (IMO) registered under the name
'Microsoft
Document' instead of 'Microsoft Word document'. Once I granted
launch
permissions on 'Microsoft Document' to the ASPNET user, ASP .NET
was able
to run this line of code without an access denied error:

Dim appWord As New Word.Application()



the problem i now have is that i dont know how to grant launch control to
permissions on Microsoft Document to the ASPNET user

any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Check the IUSR_machinename user. Give your document this access. First try=
administrative maybe then work down from there.
