the script i am trying to execute is 
use Win32::OLE qw(in with);
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Excel';
use Win32::OLE::Variant;
use Win32::OLE::NLS qw(:LOCALE :DATE);
use Win32::OLE;
use Win32::OLE::Const;
use strict;
$Win32::OLE::Warn = 3; # die on errors...


my $file = "C:\\testw.txt";
open (TTT, ">$file") || die "error";

my $filename = "C:\\book1.xls";
my $filter = 'gif'; # can be GIF, JPG, JPEG or PNG    
my $pngnm = "C:\\test";

eval{
my $Excel = Win32::OLE->new('Excel.Application', 'Quit'); # use the Ex
+cel application if it's open, otherwise open new
my $Book = $Excel->Workbooks->Open( $filename ); # open the file
foreach my $Sheet (in $Book->Sheets) 
{
    # loop through all sheets
    foreach my $ChartObj (in $Sheet->ChartObjects) 
    {
        # loop through all chartobjects in the sheet
        
        #$datewk = join("".split(/\s+/, $Date));
                
        my $savename =  "$pngnm" . ".$filter";
        #$savename = "$dirpath\\$pngnm" . ".$filter";
        
        # Write image to PNG file
        
    my $t = $ChartObj->Chart->Export({
                        FileName => $savename,
                        FilterName => $filter,
                        Interactive => 0
                    });
        
    }
}
        
$Book->Close({SaveChanges=>0});
};
 my $rrr = Win32::FormatMessage(Win32::GetLastError());
my $err = $@;
print TTT $err;

The same script excutes without any error on the other server with same configuration. Windows 2003 server office 2000 standard It is creating the png file & then giving this error. I suspect it could be a security issue. If so please tell me what permissions it requires?
Thanks
