Thanx a lot to all of you for your answers.
This issue was raised due to the fact that I am using a domain user as tha
anonymous user.
I succeded to resolve the problems by running the dcomcnfg utility and
giving the user "allow" access to "Microsoft Excel Program" (located under
the DCOM Config container)
Cheers
