I am now learning Visual Basic app scripting; this looks cool but will take me sometime to get there...

rewriting the VBA either in Perl

I wanted to continue to build experience in Perl and your comment seems to lead me to believe that I can write my little automation in VBA then re-write/tranlate this VBA code into Perl, right? I don't know how so I will do VBA then hit the monks to help me translate into perl.

I've created some easy quick Modules(2 so far) in perl and will like to continue to learn more.

any ideas on a quick automation ideas using modules and perhaps some GUI (want to learn how to build gui with automation)
