Does anyone here know if there are any plans
to add DDE support to PHP (or is there already
DDE support, but i stupidly overlooked it)?

I ran into a snag while developing a project using
PHP+COM+Excel; i couldn't find anyway to get Excel
to send the currently opened spreadsheet to the
printer... which is what i need to do after i 
work with the sheets.

I found a way to do it with DDE, but then realized
that PHP doesn't support DDE; so i resorted to
writing a Perl script to loop through each
of my files and send a DDE command to Excel
telling it to print the file.

But i'd really rather like to keep everything
centered around PHP+COM, instead of now having
to use two separate languages with two separate
interfaces to manipulate and print spreadsheets.
