in reply to Compilation problems with Spreadsheet::ParseExcel after moving from IIs to *nix


I was able to run your program on a Linux machine without problems. The only thing that I changed was the location of the Excel file.

Perhaps, one of the support modules need upgrading. For comparison, here are the versions that I used: 

    Module                            Version
    Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Simple   1.01
    Spreadsheet::ParseExcel           0.2602
    IO::Stringy                       2.108
    IO::Scalar                        2.104
    OLE::Storage_Lite                 0.11

    John,
    Thanks for checking it. If it ran for you it must be a version issue. I am having this issue on Red Hat, perhaps there are older copies of the modules in the path and they are loaded before my lib. On the IIs box they were the only copies so your explanation must be correct.
    I appreciate your time!
