    What component are you trying to call on your asp page?
    Did you make sure it was installed on the server?
    Did you make sure you specified the correct name of the component in your script?

    Ok I am dumb to ASP and this ASP program I am working is one that was working before but the server that it was on was deleted and formated so all the necessary information to setup this thing has come in my lap.

    A component is usually a third party tool that adds functionality to your asp pages. Components are DLL files that are installed on the server and are accessed by using the Server.CreateObject() function in your pages.

    An example would be the File System Object (FSO) by Microsoft, which when reffered to, allows you to access, modify, create, delete files and folders that are on the server. You wouldn't be able to do that just by using VBScript.

    Other examples of components would allow you to upload pictures to your server, send email from your website, and host of other functionalities.

    From the file name it seems it trying to access a component that is related to pictures, but not finding it.

    FSO should already installed. Just a matter of enabling it onthe server. The others would need to download and installed on the server. That would mean finding thier website and downloading the components.

    One way to find thier site, is take the name of the component from your asp pages and do a google search for them.

    For example, this is the code I use to connect to an email component on my server:
    Code:
    Server.CreateObject("Jmail.Message")
    Jmail is the name of the component. So doing a search for it would find the website where I can download the component.

    There was an asp script I had that would show you which components were installed on your server, but I can't seem to find it right now.

    Before you do anything else though, could you post the line of code that the error is reffering to?

    Yeah, what MadHacker said. That component allows you to send email from your webpages.

    You will need to ask your host to install it for you. Or use an email component they have already installed on thier server.
