On Windows platforms, PHP4 now supports COM.
This means that PHP4 can actually operate all Windows applications.
The COM module at the heart of Microsoft allows any Windows application to
provide a certain number of components and other methods as an entry point for manipulating another
application.
A few lines of short code may be more effective than a detailed description. Next, let's take a look at an example of
: it starts Word, creates a new document, adds text and saves it to disk.
$word = new COM("word.application") or die("Impossible to instantiate WordApp");
print "Word is running, version {$word-> Version}n";
$word->Visible=1;
$word->Documents->Add();
$word->Selection->TypeText("This is a test ...");
$word->Documents[1]->SaveAs("test_com_php.doc");
$word->Quit();
