in reply to Win32::OLE Excel: Close and Quit no matter what happens

Searching the Win32::OLE documentation for ->Quit shows the following example:

$ex = Win32::OLE->new('Excel.Application', sub {$_[0]->Qui +t;}) or die "Oops, cannot start Excel";

It seems to me that the optional destructor argument (as documented in Win32::OLE) will do what you want.
