I know in VB there is a way to create a button that will allow you to download certain information from a database into a word document. However I have not been able to find this for PHP and was wondering if perhaps there was a way and I am just not finding it? Or if this is not something that can be done...

Thanks!

You can load data from many different DB's. But I don't know a way to put that into a word document with php.
Maybe you can use the COM interface from PHP and play with VBS with is near to VB.
