errors on FileSystemObject

[telcogirl]

I hope this is a simple fix....when i try to run my page and open a text file for writing, i get this error

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'

Server.CreateObject Failed

/CHDW/email1.asp, line 18

Invalid ProgID.

I have no problems with any of my other server.createobject instances, only the line(line 18) that reads
Set myFile=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot

any ideas??? I should mention that i am a newbie....

I believe this is a permissions error.

it is a server side permission? How can i fix it? I guess i should mention that i am using a free web hosting service........for testing purposes while i am working on this.

info/fix and I was wrong in my first suggestion. it's a component issue.

I faced a similar problem once
it turned out that I was trying to open a file with the wrong path

thank you...that makes sense. i just emailed my provider to see if the files necessary are on the server.

This is a long shot, but do you know of any code to force it to work?
