try to replace
Set ObjFSO1 = CreateObject("UserAccounts.CommonDialog")
with
Set ObjFSO1 = CreateObject("GetOpenFileName")
here is another article:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa155724(v=office.10).aspx

and some code:
http://pastebin.com/6qwdgzaB

Set ObjFSO = CreateObject("GetOpenFileName")
ObjFSO.Filter = "All Files|*.*"
ObjFSO.FilterIndex = 3
ObjFSO.InitialDir = "C:\"
InitFSO = ObjFSO.ShowOpen
If InitFSO = False Then
Wscript.Quit
Else
ObjFSO.delete
End If

I did find a work around, though not pretty but it works. I commented out
the code that attempts to open the Dialog Box and hard coded the file name
that I needed to open and now the macro runs as intended. The issue seems
to be something in Win 7 and UserDialog boxes.

subject: [SystemiDotNet] Question about running macros...

Hello,

I have a macro that I created for an end user to do some repetitive tasks
on a green-screen iSeries session. The macro is written in VB script and it
runs fine under Windows XP. Recently, the user upgraded to Win 7 and when
she tries to run the macro, she gets the following error:

Error in the script on line 190: AcitveX component can't create object:
'UserAccounts.CommonDialog'.

What the macro is attempting to do at that point is this command:

Set ObjFSO1 = CreateObject("UserAccounts.CommonDialog")

Which is needed to open an "Open File" dialog so the user can open a csv
file for the macro to process it.

Has anybody run into this situation? And if so, what did you do resolve it?
As always, thanks for the help. I have researched on the internet for this
type of error and tried the solutions offered but had not had any luck.



Thank you,

Antonio Mira
Application Developer
