Automation server cant create object

[Lee Newson]

Hi,

I have a form that connects to sharepoint using soap objects. I have
published it to a form library which works fine. when i click on 'fill out
this form' the form opens on my computer but when i click on a button that
starts the collection of data i get the following error:

Automation server can't create object

this error is to do with creating a soap object. does anyone know how i can
get this to work, i have soap installed on the server and on the local
machine and i cant think of what else to try.

thanks for any help.

Probably a security issue. Which SOAP object? Are you using SP-1? Is the
form fully trusted? Do you know what line of code is throwing the error?
(Attach the debugger & set a breakpoint before clicking the problem button.)

I am using Infopath SP-1 Preview. The line of code it falls over on is
this:

var objSoapClass = new ActiveXObject("MSSOAP.SoapConnector30");

so it is having a problem creating the new instnace of a soap object. This
line is first line of code to get run once the form is going so there are no
preceeding functions etc.

sorry the line actually reads

var objSoapClass = new ActiveXObject("MSSOAP.SoapClient30");
