WORD COUNT IN WORD DOCUMENT

[jchemie]

Dear Friends,
    I wanted to have a word count of a word document on my server, but when i use fopen or fread then there is the hearder junk. I wanted to know how i could get the word count. I tried COM as in

$word = new COM("word.application");
$word->Open($filename);


but i dont know how to have the word count of the file. One more thing is that i am currently using WINDOWS SERVER but my target is a linux server. So is there a way to have this word count without the use of COM?? Please help at the earliest.

Thanks
