Jith has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks, I have a weird problem. I am opening an excel using Win32::OLE in 64bit excel. But excel.exe process is still running in taskmanager even after closing excel. I am seeing no issue in 32bit excel. Any input will really help me. Thanks in advance.

    Same phenomonon observed with 32bit Excel.exe -- without regard to module; in fact when executing Excel without Perl.

    But you might wish to try open/write/close ops with one of the fine Excel::... modules to see if the same problem occurs.
