    Dear all experts,

    Why everytime I use CreateObject statement it doesn't work if
    I execute the script remotely?

    For instance:
    I have the script file on my C drive and I execute it, it works.
    BUT if I have the script file on my remote computer and I share & map
    the drive of that remote computer then I execute the script
    file from my PC, then it doesn't work.

    Question for experts:
    How to make it works? Both local and remote computer have
    WSH installed.

    Thanks in advance
    Keiko

    Filename: Test.htm
    ------------------
    <html><body><script language = "VBScript">
    Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    </script></body></html>

    Dear Sastraxi,

    Thanks for the reply, but it prompts me "Object Required: Server"
    How to solve this?

    Thanks again in advance

    Hi kayoca,

    I currently I'm using a shared high-end PC (windows 98)
    but it's possible for me to put the script on
    NT4.0 or Windows 2000 Server in the future.

    Any suggestions?

    *hmm...

    that would explain it.
    that's ASP, it needs an interpreter to run it, like PWS.
    You put your ASPs into a folder, set that up as your internet folder, and access them as so...

    I think if IE accesses a file off your local filesystem (ex: C:\Work\test.html) , it would run with very high security privileges (it could create the objects). If you run it from a shared drive (\\compname\folder\test.html) it would run with the priveleges set in IEs local intranet security zone.
