Hi,

I'm trying to script InDesign with vbscript from the browser. I'm using a script that works as a .vbs, but when I put it in a html-page, I get the error "ActiveX Component can't create object: 'indesign.application'".
However, if InDesign wasn't open, it is launched (it just won't perform the rest of the script).

For a while I thought it was a security-issue, but I am allowed to create a filesystemobject, so that's probably not it.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Joeri
