So you totally missed the completely new COM and .Net support in PHP 5 ? :-)

 

As far as I've seen the new COM support has yet to allow for setting 
properties with arguments and as the equivalent asp syntax is not valid 
php syntax I'm pretty sure it would require a new function in order to 
implement it.

Example ASP syntax:
Set comobj = Server.CreateObject("MyComLib.ComLib")
comobj.Property("Record") = "otherdata"
PHP Syntax:
$comobj = &new COM('MyComLib.ComLib');
$comobj->Property("Record") = "otherdata";            // This will fail
The last line will fail with PHP Fatal error: Can't use method return 
value in write context
If you do know of a way to do this with native PHP COM support I'd love 
to use it instead.

Thanks,
