I am trying to run a Powershell script, which opens and modifies an Excel spreadsheet, from a SQL Agent job step, . The script runs fine by itself, and from BIDS. I have tried running as an SSIS pkg with a proxy, and when that didn't work I setup the step to simply run the Powershell script.This is the error I receive:A job step received an error at line 17 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is '$Workbook=$objExcel.Workbookds.Open("\\files\reporting\Dailyreport_MMDDYYYY.xls",0,$False,1,"password")'Correct the script and reschedule the job.The error information returned by PowerShell is: "Exception calling "Open" with "5" arguments(s)."Microsoft Excel cannot access the file "\\files\reporting\Dailyreport_MMDDYYYY.xls".There are several possible reasons: The file name or path does not exist [i](Yes, it does!)[/i]The file is being used by another program [i](No, it’s not!)[/i]The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook." [i](No again, no workbooks open)[/i]Process Exit Code -1. The step failedIt appears that it does not want to open Excel, but why?FYI: 64-bit System, 64-bit SQL 2008 R2, 32-bit Office 2010. I have already tried adding "Desktop" to SysWoW64 and editing my DCOM settings, with no change in results.Thanks,Lorna
