here is some code I borrowed that would work. if I can figure out how to get rid of preceeding "00" in a column:
#!/usr/bin/perl
my $sheet;
my $count = -1;
while( <DATA> ) {
chomp;
$count++;
# skip header
next unless $count;
my $row;
@$row = split( /,/, $_ );
push @$sheet, $row;
}
foreach my $row ( sort { $a->[0] <=> $b->[0] || $a->[1] <=> $b->[1] }
+@$sheet ) {
print join( ',', @$row ), "\n";
}
__DATA__
Name,Score,State
"001","67","CA"
"2","67","CA"
"12","63","FL"
"1","72","IL"
"1","32","AZ"

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
