Back in the days of Office 2000 there was some sort of official statement
from MS somewhere that basically told people to avoid automating office on
serverside applications that have no real interactive login session. Getting
things to work involved messing with DCOM settings and other ugly things, if
you then got popup windows asking for stuff you were basically screwed.
Back then there were third party Assemblies that could open or create Office
documents for that purpose.
Right now I'm trying to find a way from Office Office documents to TIF files
but apparently Office 2007 can't save things directly as TIF. It probably
involves writing a windows service in .Net 3.5 that watches folders and does
the conversion but that's just a quick idea.
Is the regular Office 2007 is still not meant to be used in a server
environment?
If so, can anyone maybe point me to some vendor that sells assemblies that
are meant to run on a server environment?
