OutLook- Access Denied problem- Urgent

[FoxLearner]

Hi all
Irun my App on Citrix server. When I use the command
loApp = CREATEOBJECTEX("outlook.Application",lcComputerName)

I am getting an error:
"OLE error code oX80070005: Access Denied"
Can some one tell me where look for and what may be the reason?

Thanks and Regards
FoxLearner

Does the Citrix server actually have access back to the computer (you most likely have to map back to it, and I'm not sure Citrix can map back. Mike Gagnon

Maybe someone already has Outlook open on the server, and it can't launch multiple times?

Perhaps the logged user doesn't have access to all the directories that Outlook needs?

Perhaps there is a better, lighter weight method of sending emails, say SMTP, since you have control of the server and can easily specify the SMTP server. See

I believe that Foxlearner is trying to launch Outlook while in the Citrix server [/b] but the Outlook is on one of the stations attached to the server [/b] otherwise he would have used CREATEOBJECT() instead of CREATEOBJECTEX(). Mike Gagnon

Hi
Mike is right. I am trying to laucnh outlook on the client, ie the user's computer. lcComputername in the createobjectex is the name of the client machine.
It might be that the client machine is denying access to the Citrix server. Any idea how to resolve this?

Thanks and regards

Ah.. I missed the "Ex" on the call... I have little experience with DCOM... I don't have any good suggestions.
