Excel create object error

[Jeroen de Wolf]

Hello!

I have an ASP page that creates an Excel object:
set lobjXLSApplication = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

This used to run fine on my local machine, but since I've installed Office
2003, I get the following error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01ad'
ActiveX component can't create object: 'Excel.Application'

What do I have to do to keep my old script working?

Thank you very much for your help in advance!
Jeroen
