I used $word->Selection->Documents->Open("c:\\www\\test.doc"); instead of $word->Documents->Open("c:\\www\\test.doc"); Thanx! /Gustav -----Original Message----- From: Niel Archer [mailto:not@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, October 09, 2007 11:13 AM To: php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: VBScript - TO - PHP... Open-Method-COM+ Hi First off, let me say I don't use Word, don't even have it installed on my computers, so I can't test any of this. You seem to be doing unnecessary stuff to open one document (adding a new one that's not used after). Have you looked at PHP's online documentation for .COM (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.com.php). It has some excellent comments and examples from other users, one of which I reproduce below. an easy way to convert your file from .doc to .html // starting word $word = new COM("word.application") or die("Unable to instanciate Word"); // if you want see the World interface the value must be '1' else '0' $word->Visible = 1; //doc file location $word->Documents->Open("E:\\first.doc"); //html file location '8' mean HTML format $word->Documents[1]->SaveAs("E:\\test_doc.html",8); //closing word $word->Quit(); //free the object from the memory $word->Release(); $word = null; > Hi again > > I don't know If I figure out exactly how to "convert" VB-application to PHP-code... > I'm using the reference:http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa220317(office.11).aspx > (Because I'm using Word 2003 as test-application) > > > And viewing example: "As it applies to Document-object" > > > > > > And I think THIS would be done like this in PHP ? > (I get the following error: I'm using MS Word 11.0 > Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message 'Unable to lookup `Open': Okänt namn.
