New Comment:
Thank You All for your replies. I have written an Excel-to-tsv program
and the cell method syntax is similar; however, the method works
nothing like this.
Yes, I thought it would be something like [], but, I have tried using
[] && {}; however, it treats it simply as an array and of course
complains when you add a comma [1,1]. I just mainly wanted to make sure
I had not lost my mind! Atleast knowing that this *May* be supported in
the future is a big relief. Again, Thank you.

PHP does not currently support this kind of thing.
PHP 5 *should* allow it using [] array access, but it does not yet.
Suspending this until the required hooks are present in the engine.

Maybe this helps you:

Look for "$cell".
However, I think this is not a bug, but a support question. So this is
not the appropriate place to ask.

Do not dismiss this so quickly as not understanding PHP syntax. I am a
very compentant PHP coder for a large company (a company which I am
trying to show that PHP can replace their horrible asp/VB systems for
accessing SAP). I understand PHP syntax very well and that using:
$optionAdd(1,"TEXT")="FCURR = 'NTD'";
Will cause a parse error ##using an equal '=' sign after what php would
see as a funtion call is impossible## None the less, I have not found a
way to assign this value. The
whole point is that I have to assign a value to a co-ordinate:
TABLE COL1
ROW1 #VALUE#
this co-oridinate/value is represented by (1,1)
I can retrieve the default value assigned to this co-ordinate by
using:
$myValue=$optionAdd->value(1,1); ## LEGAL, I get my value back
I am unable to ASSIGN a value since every time I try it would be
hurting the parser's feelings or breaking the metods rules.
$optionAdd->value(1,1)="Some Text"; Unexpected '=' Error
$optionAdd->value="Some Text"; propput failed invalid index
$optionAdd->appendRow(1,1);
$optionAdd="Some Text"; Invalid number of arguments appendRow
The list goes on and on. I have spent more time than I can imagine
hunting for ways to modify my script. I have researched the SAP COM
methods for alternate solutions, I have studied examples in every other
language, I tried everything I know how to do. I cannot do this. If you
it is as simple as not understanding PHP syntax, then show me how it is
done, otherwise, tell me why it can't be done.

Learn PHP syntax first.
