Register Word Handler?

elwin68

Our customer has upgraded from 3.70b (native) to 4SP3 (SQL).
Everything did go well except one thing. An error occured when opening an interaction entry with a word document. The solution was to re-register NSAppHandler.dll.
Now I have a question. Our customer has a lot of clients and on every client the dll must be re-registered.
Is there a quick way to do this?
Is it possible to changes the registry so it can be done by a policy? And if so, which changes must be made in the registry?

I hope someone have a clue.

Thanks in advance.

Our customer has a lot of clients and on every client the dll must be re-registered.
Is there a quick way to do this?

- create a batch file containing the command

regsvr32 YourAutomationName.dll

- place it a folder with the DLL file.
- place it on every client and just click to execute the batch.

Is it possible to changes the registry so it can be done by a policy? And if so, which changes must be made in the registry?

- Once it was already registered on the machine, you do not need to register it again.

Thanks for your answer.

This is a solution, but you need to do this on every client.
When a customer has 50 clients or more for example the system administrator does not like to go to every client. Specially when the clients are not in the same building.

I hope there is a possibility to do this from the server.

You can use the (RDP) Remote Desktop Protocol in the server to be able to access the clients.

A new problem has occured.
After registering the dll the error message has disappeared. A Word document can be opened through an interaction.
But when closing the Word document the Navision cliënt hangs.

Does anybody recognize this problem? ](*,)
Thanks in advance.
