    $pWordCOM->ActiveDocument->Close(false);
    $pWordCOM->Quit();

}
catch(Exception $e)
{
    die($e->getMessage());
}

Thanks!

Just a question though.
Where do you find info about the Documents and Open thingy?
As used here:

PHP Code:


			
$pWordCOM->Documents->Open($szOpenDocument);

Also, these things?

PHP Code:


			
$pWordCOM->ActiveDocument->SaveAs($szSaveDocument, 8);

As said before, I found the info about the COM class, but it didn't have any of those functions.. ActiveDocument nor Documents..

Anyways, thanks! However, I didn't really want to save it as a txt.. I wanted to get the HTML code so I can post it on the website, without having to write the HTML code for bold and tables wherever they are used..
