Hello,

I am facing a strange issue with Microsoft Office 2010. I am working on a web application in which I am opening a document file. On that machine only MS office 2010 is installed. I am opening office file with the help of an active x control.

Everything was working fine until office 2007, but with 2010 it throws an error like "Word could not create work file, check environment variables.....Something like that".

I searched a lot for the issue, changed settings, registry files, temp paths etc according to some online solutions. But I am still facing the same problem.

Please suggest any solution.

Thanks,
Jagjot

If there is something in eventviewer, it would be good idea to post in your question. That may be helpful for others to answer the question.

I reviewed the event viewer and found this error.

The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{A47979D2-C419-11D9-A5B4-001185AD2B89}
to the user Testing-PC\Testing SID (S-1-5-21-3828072850-91671332-3960872037-1000) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.
