Please write and spell clearly.

And we're going to need some useful information, before you can get any help. What version/distro of Linux, and what version of PHP??

There is lots of info on Google. Your best bet, IMHO, would be to use OpenOffice from the command-line, to convert it to a 'plain' format, and read it in there. OpenOffice even comes with an API....
