Createobject Is Not Defined ? Options

[The ToolSmith]

I'm trying to make an ADO connection to a DB using the following javascript code code...

CODE

var connection = COM.createObject("ADODB.Connection");

I receive the following error:
uncaught exception: createObject: Access denied: COM

Any idea what might be going on. I'm using the latest widget engine (4.5) on WIndows XP SP2

Thanks,
-Paul

Since 4.5, you need to specify on the <security> block that you will use a COM object, and what object you will use.

I'm using the following in my widget.xml file:

CODE

<security>
    <filesystem>full</filesystem>
    <command>true</command>
    <com name="ADODB.Connection">ADODB.Connection</com>
</security>

I know the name is incorrect, any idea what it is?

Thanks again,

Did you try that?

CODE

<security>
    <filesystem>full</filesystem>
    <command>true</command>
    <com name="ADODB">ADODB</com>
</security>

CODE

<security>
    <filesystem>full</filesystem>
    <command>true</command>
    <com name="ADODB">ADODB</com>
</security>

Close...I got this to work:

CODE

<security>
    <filesystem>full</filesystem>
    <command>true</command>
    <com name="ADODB">ADODB.Connection</com>
</security>

The 'name' attribute is just for the user to see on the security dialog, so you need to give a descriptive name.
