Beginner Question.

[TonyJeffs]

I've just started to try and understand ASP.
ASP doesn't work when I upload to my NTL webspace, so I signed up for
free AST enabled webspace at:
http://www.1asphost.com

This works fine with simple ASP "hello world" code:

.................................
<%
response.write("Hello World!")
%>
................................


But when I try this

...............................
<%
Dim objFSO
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFSO = Nothing
%>
..................................

It gives this error:
......................................................
Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'
Server.CreateObject Failed
/tonyjeffs2/test/test4.asp, line 8
Invalid ProgID. For additional information specific to this message
please visit the Microsoft Online Support site located at:

...................................................

Reading the microsoft site, I get the idea that it is the way the
server is set up, rather than my code. Is that correct?

Thanks
Tony

You can't do it with that host. Have you tried brinkster? I think you can do
it with that.
