Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

automations can be painful sometimes.

Check the windows user if you have all the permissions etc. Run NAV as administrator (right click, run as admin)
Initialising the automation is as simple as:

IF ISCLEAR(lADOConnection) THEN
CREATE(lADOConnection,TRUE,TRUE);

If it's am Automation Variable then you need to instantiate with CREATE function.

I did that, after which I got this error when trying to create it Cannot create an instance of an Automation Server with CLSID = {0002094D-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}.
