Re: Perl script to fill the entire row of Excel file with color based on pattern match

in reply to Perl script to fill the entire row of Excel file with color based on pattern match

Dear Kshitij, just out of curiousity, if you are on windows and have excel package installed why do you not use vbscript instead Or if you were in windows would you rather use vbscript or Perl?

I am not suggesting that you should (Edit: i.e. use vbscript)!! but I am curious to see if people feel better or more comfortable using Perl than native tools. Re: The future of Perl.

I am using Linux and using the perl script there. I have not used vbscript but I can give a try	[reply]
