Thanks for the replay.

$workbook-close();
$excel_app-Quit();
these two statements are already used before closing.

san,
I don't know PHP well, but I assume that is the same as this VB code:
Dim XLApp as Object
Set XLApp=CreateObject("Excel.Application")
XLApp.ActiveWindow.FreezePanes = True

However, is there actually any window yet as you have not added/opened any
workbooks ?
Check the value of ActiveWindow.

Not sure, but if the application or window is not visible, it may error.

If we comment the 'FreezePanes' property its working file.

$excel_app = new COM("Excel.Application");
$excel_app-ActiveWindow-FreezePanes = True;
