    when i tried changing the worksheet name as commented above didn't change. Using this code how to delete a particular column in each sheet?

      That code gives these errors

      Scalar found where operator expected at excel.pl line 57, near "$colmin
                       $worksheet1"
              (Missing operator before $worksheet1?)
      Global symbol "$worksheet1" requires explicit package name at excel.pl line 27.
      Bareword "i" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at excel.pl line 27.
      syntax error at excel.pl line 27, near "i write"

      excel.pl had compilation errors.
