Is this installation is necessary? this needs to update my code as well. can't this possible using command line directly I am using now? if its working directly using command line it would be better for me to use.

Its working with demo version i downloaded when i was researching doc2any command line software and i test this again with trial version of doc2any command line its working fine. why i need to install com component?

Yes, you need purchase the Server License, the End User License is just for end customers who will use the software on their personal computers.

Yes, you need install VeryPDFComRunCmd.exe COM Component.

>>Is this installation is necessary? this needs to update my code as well. can't this possible using command line directly i am using now? if its working directly using command line it would be better for me to use.

No, you can't call the Command Line directly, because MS Office can't be run inside SYSTEM user account, you need use VeryPDFComRunCmd.exe COM Component to switch from SYSTEM user account to an interactive user account.

>>Its working with demo version i downloaded when i was researching doc2any command line software and i test this again with trial version of doc2any command line its working fine. why i need to install com component?

The com component is used to switch from SYSTEM user account to an interactive user account, this way will overcome the limitation of MS Office. However, if you can get Command Line works directly, you can also keep your work continue, so please don't worry about this matter.

My command line works directly on trial version and it's not working on register version of doc2any command line (end user license), why?

If I install VeryPDFComRunCmd.exe, will this change my code? Currently I am invoking doc2any.exe using "process.start()". Will the same work for COM component?

Thanks,
Customer

If you will use VeryPDFComRunCmd.exe, you will need to change your source code, you need to call a COM instead of an EXE file, please refer to a simple ASP code at below,

<%

set VeryPDFCom = Server.CreateObject("VeryPDFCom.RunCmd")
dim nRetVal, bRet
bRet = VeryPDFCom.RunCmd("C:\windows\notepad.exe", 5, 0)
strRet = VeryPDFCom.RunCmd2("cmd /c dir C:\", 5)
Response.Write strRet & vbCrlf

%>

However, if you don't want to change your current source code, you can set MS Word DCOM run inside an interactive user account, please look at following web pages for more information,

https://www.verydoc.com/others/configure-word-and-excel.htm

after you configure MS Word DCOM run inside an interactive user account, e.g., Administrator user account, you can use "process.start()" to run doc2any.exe from a service properly.
