Hi Monks, how do I save a read-only Excel file? When the command 'Save' is encountered, it prompts a 'Save as a different file' message. I am using Win32::OLE. Update: This is the code I am using 
use warnings ;
use Storable ;
use Cwd;
use Win32::OLE ;
use Win32::OLE  qw(in with) ;

my $file = cwd.'\\'."myexcel.xlsm" ;
my $Excel = Win32::OLE->new("Excel.Application") ;
my $workbook = $Excel->Workbooks->Open($file) ;
die "Failed to define Excel workbook" unless (defined $workbook) ;

$workbook->Save;

Pop-up message prompt: A file named 'myexcel.xlsm' already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it?
