you should be using a try/catch block (lets assume for now that the error
msg is correct and COM is not broken as such):
try {
/* do stuff ... e.g. */
$word->Selection->ParagraphFormat->TabStops->Add->Position(418,0,0);
} catch (com_exception $e) {
print_r($e); // or do some better error handling
}
catching the exception will give you the opportunity to continue the
script (rather than having to swallow a fatal error) - the fact that your
getting an exception is either because you really are using the wrong
number of parameters or the COM extension is broken in 5.1 (I guess -
maybe check bugs.php.net to see if someone has filed anything regarding this)
btw there is also the keyword 'throw' that complements try/catch - the manual
explains the basics of exception throwing and catching much better than I
can (be bothered to ;-)
