Hey I have a Excel form with 5 Macros and 50 fields. I am sure we
can create an COM object or Excel Object if PHP is running under windows.

I searched Google and come accross PHP Excel Parser Pro for which i need to pay.

How can i create an Excel object in PHP/Linux?

    Jayant,

    Thanks for your help.

    Do you think PHP + COM + Excel possible in Linux??

    I don't have room to windows except Excel file.

    Anyideas would be greatly appreciated !!

      AFAIK, the COM extension is not availiable on *nix.

        maybe if one uses Wine. you will have to check with wine people.

          how can you load a single php extension through wine? impossible IMHO.

            use wine to load windows php, windows apache and use them. then it should easy to use COM

              Thank you guys !!
