Is it possible to read and write Word (2003 and 2007) files in PHP without using a COM object? I know that I can:
$file = fopen(\'c:\\file.doc\', \'w+\');
fw
I don't know what you are going to use it for, but I needed .doc support for search indexing; What I did was use a little commandline tool called "catdoc"; This transfers the contents of the Word document to plain text so it can be indexed. If you need to keep formatting and stuff this is not your tool.
