> The error does not signify any relationship with the file missing If that's the case, what is "This file could not be found"? I'm assuming you have put test.doc into the same directory as your PHP script? Remember, that it's Word that is trying to open the file, not PHP, and Word has absolutely no idea where the file is unless you tell it the full path.
