If you are frustrated that print_r($obj) (where $obj is something returned from a call to a function on a COM object) does not return anything helpful, and that variant_get_type($obj) just returns a number, the function you are actually after is:
com_print_typeinfo($obj);
It lists all functions, variables, their types in a human-readable (well, programmer-readable) format. Lovely!
VARIANT
(No version information available, might be only in CVS)
VARIANT — VARIANT 类
$vVar = new VARIANT($var)
描述
用于将变量封装进 VARIANT 结构中的简单容器。
方法
string VARIANT::VARIANT
([ mixed $value
[, int $type
[, int $codepage
]]] )
VARIANT 类构造函数。参数：
- value
- 初始值。若省略则创建一个 VT_EMPTY 对象。
- type
- 指定 VARIANT 对象的内容类型。可用的值为 VT_UI1、VT_UI2、VT_UI4、VT_I1、VT_I2、VT_I4、VT_R4、VT_R8、VT_INT、VT_UINT、VT_BOOL、VT_ERROR、VT_CY、VT_DATE、VT_BSTR、VT_DECIMAL、VT_UNKNOWN、VT_DISPATCH 和 VT_VARIANT。这些值相互排斥，但是可以使用 VT_BYREF 将它们联合起来指定为一个值。若省略，则使用参数 value 的类型。额外信息请查阅 msdn 库。
- codepage
- 指定用于将 PHP 字符串（php-strings）转换成 UNICODE 字符串（unicode-strings）的代码页，反之亦然。可用的值为 CP_ACP、CP_MACCP、CP_OEMCP、CP_SYMBOL、CP_THREAD_ACP, CP_UTF7 和 CP_UTF8。

Running PHP 4.3.2 on Windows 2000 I had to use the following expression to create an empty Variant:
<?php
$empty = new Variant(null);
print $empty->type // ==> 1
?>
NOT
<?php
$empty = new Variant();
print $empty->type // ==> 0
?>
The two expressions return different Variant type values!

With thanks to Harald Radi and Wez Furlong.
Some VBA functions have optional parameters. Sometimes the parameters you want to pass are not consecutive.
e.g.
GoTo What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name="BookMarkName"
GoTo(wdGoToBookmark,,,"BookMarkName)
In PHP, the "blank" parameters need to be empty.
Which is ...
<?php
// Some servers may have an auto timeout, so take as long as you want.
set_time_limit(0);
// Show all errors, warnings and notices whilst developing.
error_reporting(E_ALL);
// Used as a placeholder in certain COM functions where no parameter is required.
$empty = new VARIANT();
// Load the appropriate type library.
com_load_typelib('Word.Application');
// Create an object to use.
$word = new COM('word.application') or die('Unable to load Word');
print "Loaded Word, version {$word->Version}\n";
// Open a new document with bookmarks of YourName and YourAge.
$word->Documents->Open('C:/Unfilled.DOC');
// Fill in the information from the form.
$word->Selection->GoTo(wdGoToBookmark,$empty,$empty,'YourName'); // Note use of wdGoToBookmark, from the typelibrary and the use of $empty.
$word->Selection->TypeText($_GET['YourName']);
$word->Selection->GoTo(wdGoToBookmark,$empty,$empty,'YourAge');
$word->Selection->TypeText($_GET['YourAge']);
// Save it, close word and finish.
$word->Documents[1]->SaveAs("C:/{$_GET['YourName']}.doc");
$word->Quit();
$word->Release();
$word = null;
print "Word closed.\n";
?>
The example document is ...
Hello [Bookmark of YourName], you are [Bookmark of YourAge] years old.
and it would be called ...
word.php?YourName=Richard%20Quadling&YourAge=35
Regards,
Richard.

# I think that we need some examples of this thing:
# Lets define a real variant:
$varREAL= new Variant("9.34 is a real number",VT_R8);
print "Value:". $varREAL->value; # Will print 9.34
# Now an integer
$varINT= new Variant("9.34 Printed as an integer",VT_INT);
print "Value:". $varINT->value; # Will print 9
# Now a string
$varSTR= new Variant("9.34 Printed as a string",VT_BSTR);
print "Value:". $varSTR->value; # Will 9.34 Printed as a string
?>
