I don't understand what this function is doing 'Invoke'

I am trying to understand this function below.

hfind is deal with msword. It is basically searching for the tag in the ms file template.

fromstr = is a tagname inside of the msword. For example <name>

tostr = is a name of the user which is replace fromstr from the nameplace.

but what these 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0 is doing? also that 2 at the end?

I will appreciate a lot

function reportgen_replace(hfind, fromstr, tostr)

% Execute the replacement

invoke(hfind, 'Execute', fromstr, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, tostr, 2);

"but what these 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0 is doing? also that 2 at the end?"

Those are inputs to some COM object's method. The method is named "Execute": https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/com.invoke.html

So you need to look up the documentation for that COM object (which you have told us nothing about). That COM object is a most likely a Microsoft product (so you should be looking at MS for that information, not here):
