[adam291086]

I am trying to use Com to open a word document. But i get the error below. As i have used a tutorial i am not sure how to solve the problem. Any ideas

 

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: com in /homepages/12/d214897219/htdocs/adam/test code/file_get_contents().php on line 11

<?php
set_time_limit(0);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$word = new COM('word.application') or die('Unable to load Word');
$word->Documents->Open('adam.doc');
?>

please tell us which line of code is line 11, and are you sure it should be

$word = new COM('word.application') or die('Unable to load Word');

not

$word = new COM(word.application) or die('Unable to load Word');

[adam291086]

line 11 is

 

$word = new COM(word.application) or die('Unable to load Word');

 

i have also tried removing the ' ' around (word.application) but still geting the same problem.

Is this on your computer on localhost, and if so it is a problem with your config files for PHP. Just update to PHP 5.2.4 and it should fix it. If not on localhost, I cant help you much, but you can read this:
