[DUG] COM DLL's under Win2003

[Richard Vowles]

This may seem like a stupid question, but what is the error code that you are getting back from the file open for write request? Are you sure that is where it is failing and you aren't just swallowing the exception?

Hi All.
I have a wee COM DLL I wrote in Delphi that gets some data and generates a file in a dir, and then this is then downloaded from a webpage.
Under windows 2000, this process worked fine.
BUT Under Win2K3, no matter what I seem to try, I cant get the COM oject to create the file !!  I have gone as far as to say Everybody has full access to the folder, and this makes not difference. I have noted that the folder is always readonly EVEN when I force it to be writable. Even tryin to write the file to C drive didnt work
I am sure this is a security tie-down that MS have done, but wonderd if anyone else has has this or a similar problem, and how you got a round it.
 
Thanks, Jeremy
