Symptom
The Offline Distribution functionality causes an Automation Error if any other Office 2010 application is open (Word, PowerPoint, Outlook...).
The system throws the following errors: "Automation Error", "The system cannot publish the book to Interface for Web".
This does not occur with Office versions prior to Office 2010.
Issue only happens for XLSM files (macro-enabled workbook). If the template to distribute is a XLS file, the distribution is successful.
The error does not occur always at the same point in the time (it can occur after 30 seconds or after 5 minutes).
In short distributions the error may not occur, but in long distributions it will occur sooner or later.
