      This sounds like you are demanding that I solve your problem. That is
      rude. Replying to you instead of to the group only helps you instead of
      helping everybody else who has this problem. That is also rude.
      Expressing that your problem is more important than other problems
      because it is urgent, is rude. Furthermore, if it is urgent, you
      probably have a client which is in a hurry. That implies that you are
      making money. If you are making money and we are not, asking us to
      solve your problem is even more rude.

      On Windows: COM (only with PHP5) or ShareOffice.
      On Linux: antiword

          Take a chill pill, man!

          As you've taken the time to point out the errors in the OP's request and
          how rude it is, maybe you should have taken the time time to read that
          they wrote "reply me" rather than "email me" or "send me a reply" and
          realised that maybe the OP's not fluent in English and given him a degree
          of latitude in his phrasing.

          Maybe you could have even given him the benefit of the doubt, that he's
          translated his native tongue in to English and some of the polite
          subtleties have been lost along the way.

          To the OP: another way is to use the wv* tools, which are available on
          Linux and Windows.

          Cheers,


          Andy
