So you totally missed the completely new COM and .Net support in PHP 5 ? :-)

As far as I've seen the new COM support has yet to allow for setting properties with arguments and as the equivalent asp syntax is not valid php syntax I'm pretty sure it would require a new function in order to implement it. Example ASP syntax: Set comobj = Server.CreateObject("MyComLib.ComLib") comobj.Property("Record") = "otherdata" PHP Syntax: $comobj = &new COM('MyComLib.ComLib');

$comobj->Property("Record") = "otherdata";            // This will fail

The last line will fail with PHP Fatal error: Can't use method return value in write context If you do know of a way to do this with native PHP COM support I'd love to use it instead. Thanks, --Dan--
