Recently, one of our users - who does QA Testing - got an error when attempting to create an Exel file -which in this part of the system is done via Automation. The error he got was: "Error Message - OLE IDispatch exception code 0 from Microsoft Excel: You are attempting to open a file type that is blocked by your File Block settings in the Trust Center..."
The Developer who works on this particular system (which I am scheduled to take over its maintenance) - she wrote an internal e-mail telling other folks in the co. about the issue. This is what she wrote: "George actually addressed this issue by changing his trust center settings to enable opening earlier versions of excel because this cannot be done programmatically. In addition, this error occurred (before George changed his trust center settings) when the VFP code was using Excel automation, i.e., a method of creating an Excel object instance within VFP. " I'm curious to know if it's possible to resolve this Trust issue programmatically - in case some folks in this forum may have already come across this issue.
