Summary :
SAP Note addresses an issue where VBS scripts using CreateObject("Sapgui.ScriptingCtrl.1") fail with an ActiveX error in 64-bit Windows environments due to compatibility problems with the 32-bit SAP GUI interface. Symptoms include the error message "ActiveX component can't create object, Code: 800A01AD". The underlying issue stems from attempting to execute the script using a 64-bit script engine which is incompatible with the 32-bit SAP GUI scripting interface. To resolve this, users must launch the script using the specifically designed 32-bit versions of wscript.exe or cscript.exe contained within the System32 or SysWOW64 directories depending on the starting context, whether it be via Windows Explorer or command line.
