Well...i am using ASP.NET to submit a form. It saves the FDF on the server. Everything works fine uptil now. My next step is to update my PDF lying on the server with the FDF i.e. to import the FDF into PDF. Now i use AformAUtLib methods and functions to do that. Here is my code:

Dim acroapp As Acrobat.CAcroApp
            Dim formApp As AFORMAUTLib.AFormApp
            Dim acroForm As AFORMAUTLib.Fields
            acroapp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")

Dim pdf1 As Acrobat.CAcroPDDoc
            Dim pdd As Acrobat.CAcroAVDoc

pdd = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc")
            pdf1 = CreateObject("Acroexch.Pddoc")

pdd.Open("\\computername\pdftest\file.pdf", "")
            pdd = acroapp.GetActiveDoc

formApp = CreateObject("AFormAut.App")

acroForm = formApp.Fields

acroForm.ImportAnFDF("\\klxvh1l\pdftest\appendupdate.fdf")
            pdf1 = pdd.GetPDDoc
            pdf1.Save(&H5, "\\computername\pdftest\filenew.pdf")
            pdf1.Close()
            pdd.Close(0)
            acroapp.Exit()
            formApp = Nothing
            pdf1 = Nothing
            pdd = Nothing

acroapp = Nothing
            FdfAcX = Nothing
            FDFin = Nothing

But the code does not seem to work when i use it from a remote computer. If i try using it on my local machine it does save the new PDF file with imported data, but when i try that from a remote machine it does not. It sits on looking for something. Does not display any errors too. I initially thought of it as a permission issue, so granted ASPNET account all the SYSTEM privileges on the sever. Still it does not seem to work. Any help is greatly appreciated. One thing that i know is that the problem lies with instantiating AVDOC on the server when using it from a remote machine.
