Perl can indeed "add some rows" (albeit not quite as you may imagine, since writing to an existing file -- esp. Excel, can be problematic). Try searching cpan.org (or your unix distos pre-packaged add-ons if it offers them) for "Excel."

As to "sample code" however... well, that's just not the way things work here. This is not a code-writing service, but, rather, a site where many will help you learn if you show a desire to do so. And the best way to do that is to update your question to show

And just BTW, even if 5.10 is the latest your unix can offer, you'll want to be aware that there are significant changes and enhancements in more recent versions, particularly those released since 5.16.


Questions containing the words "doesn't work" (or their moral equivalent) will usually get a downvote from me unless accompanied by:

  1. code
  2. verbatim error and/or warning messages
  3. a coherent explanation of what "doesn't work actually means.
