# com_set

(PHP 4)

com_set — Assigns a value to a COM component's property

### Description

void com_set ( resource `$com_object` , string `$property` , mixed `$value` )

Sets the value of the `property` of the COM component referenced by `com_object` . Returns the newly set value if succeeded, `FALSE` on error.

Example#1 Don't use com_set(), use OO syntax instead

`<?php
// do this
$obj->property = $value;
// instead of this:
com_set($obj, 'property', $value);
?>`

> Note: This function does not exist in PHP 5; instead, you should use the regular and more natural OO syntax to access properties or call methods.
