can php open a word document and merge in data from mysql?? if so how??

[miwillans]

I am new to php and mysql and am struggling to find a solution.

 

I have a mysql database which has tables containing data that I want to input into a word document. Its possible to input the data to the right places using mail merge if you are on the computer attached to the database but I would like the document to be able to be opened from the internet and the data to be added to the document from there so that the documant can be saved or printed locally. Is this possible and how do i go about it??

 

Hope someone can help!!
