I am using ShDocVW.InternetExplorer class to spawn a new internet explorer object and to do some form filling stuffs(for some sharepoint works).It works fine in my own machine which has Windows 7 as the OS. But when I deployed the same thing in windows server 2003 machine, it does not pop up the internet explorer window. When I check the Task Manager, I could see a new iexplore process, but with Session ID = 0 (but session ID = 1 in windows 7). So, I see this is something regarding IIS Session isolation.So, is it possible to assign a ShDocVW.InternetExplorer instance to kind of a new System.Diagnostics.Process and achieve this task? Or can we start a new ShDocVW.InternetExplorer instance with session ID = 1?
thanks in advance.
Yap… I got the answer to the problem, In IIS we cannot spawn processes using Shell Execution with the default settings… If we need to do so, there are 2 workarounds that need to be set which can be found from here. And by the way, thanx very much for you guys’ input and support which helps me to figure this out. cheers…
