PHP and COM


js_280

Recommended Posts

I've attempted to try my hand at using PHP and COM in Windows, however I cannot seem to get any of the objects to become visible.  For example the following script will not display Excel...

 

$excel = new COM('Excel.Application') or die('Cannot start Excel');
$excel->Visible = true;

 

This script starts an Excel process in task manager, but will not display the program.  I've looked through all of my IIS settings and "Allow Service to Interact with Desktop" is checked.  I'm at a loss, because if is run this statement...

 

echo($excel->Version);

 

It displays 11.0 which is the version of Excel I am running...  Any ideas or suggestions?  Something I've overlooked?
