in reply to UUID not found-Win32::OLE

I was curious and founds some links that may shed a slight amount of light on the murk.. just googling your error.

Seems some people have seen this with VB and someone with Java too I believe. (the Java one said "restart your machine").

The second link below mentions it with VNC and the reply was: Try changing the use_DeferredUpdates setting in the VNCHooks preferences for the problem application to zero.

    Thank you traveller and matt.
    I am using Office 2000 though so had hoped that OLE would behave itself. I think that one of you might be right --it may be due to an unhealthy interaction with some other software such as VNC(i'm not running vnc by the way but something like that). I have also heard that some anti-virus add-ons could be responsible.

    Unfortunately as the server that i am trying to configure the DCOM script for is a live production server, i do not have the authority to disable/uninstall certain services such as anti-virus to ascertain the effect that this might have.
    Thanks anyway for your help.
    Regards,
    Sean.
