I'm using php 4.0.4-dev as CGI on NT4 with IIS4 and Word 9 (2000) ----- The errors are: Warning: Invoke() failed: No description available in D:\serverroot\is\website\test_center\testCOM.php on line 31 Line 31 is: $word->Documents->Add(); Warning: Invoke() failed: Exception occurred. in D:\serverroot\is\website\test_center\testCOM.php on line 40 Line 40 is: $word->Selection->TypeText("This is a test..."); ------ I DO get this output though... (before the errors of course) Loaded Word, version 9.0 Version using Com_get(): 9.0 ------ Here's the code, it should be identical to the example minus the echo comments... #Instantiate the Word component. $word = new COM("Word.Application") or die("Unable to instantiate Word"); #Get and print its version print "Loaded Word, version {$word->Version}<BR>"; #Another way to get the version using com_get $testversion = com_get($word->application,version); print "Version using Com_get(): $testversion <BR>"; #Make it visible in a window $word -> Visible = 1; echo "Made Word visible<br />"; #Open a new document $word->Documents->Add(); #Write something $word->Selection->TypeText("This is a test..."); echo "typed text<br />"; #Now save the document $word->Documents[1]->SaveAs("Useless.doc"); echo "Saved<br />"; #Comment next line if you want to see the word document, #then close word manually $word -> Quit(); echo "Should have quit word"; #Comment if you want to see the word document, then close ?> --------------------- John Asendorf - jasendorf@lcounty.com Web Applications Developer http://www.lcounty.com - NEW FEATURES ADDED DAILY!
