Automation server problem - 1

See more:

MFC

I have written two programs (C++, MFC, Visual Studio 2008); a dialog-derived automation server, and an MDI automation client. The client can create and generally interact with the server just fine on Windows XP (installed on a clean machine), but when I try to run them in Vista or Win7 I get an error message saying the client cannot create the server. Unfortunately, my development machine is running XP, so I can't do much debugging on the Win 7 machine. Can anyone suggest where I should start looking for the problem?

The installer for both programs was developed as a Visual Studio deployment project.

Many thanks,

Bill Heitler
