The com class
&reftitle.intro;
The com class allows you to instantiate an OLE compatible COM object and
call its methods and access its properties.

Overloaded Methods
The returned object is an overloaded object, which means that PHP does
not see any fixed methods as it does with regular classes; instead, any
property or method accesses are passed through to COM.
PHP will automatically detect methods that accept
parameters by reference, and will automatically convert regular PHP
variables to a form that can be passed by reference. This means that you
can call the method very naturally; you needn't go to any extra effort in
your code.
