in thread read-excel.pl: a code sample for Spreadsheet::ParseExcel

Thank you. Yes, I always use CPAN. (Pretty soon I'll never be able to do it any other way!)

Turns out that OLE::Storage_Lite also required IO::Scalar, which I didn't have yet, but once that was in, everything went smoothly. Reading excel spreadsheets from my linux partition will save me a ton of grief!!

    Actually - IO::Scalar is part of packet "io-stringy", thus you have to do " install io.stringy" in PPM. Then there was also a typo in line 19 of ParseExcel.pl (a + and a linebreak right in {MaxCol}. After while: it works...
      Thanks!!! This is exactly what i was looking for! :-D
