have you tried $ftp->Option->{AutoCloseMethod} or maybe  $ftp->Option(AutoCloseMethod)->{Value}?!? If I were writing it that's how I'd have made it work...

Check the Excel OLE docs and look at the item property of the Worksheets collection. It is a property.. but for example .. say you want to get the code name from the first sheet in your worksheets collection... you could write it as $worksheets->Item(x)->{CodeName} using item without { } Normally you would code it as $worksheets(x)->{CodeName} however, but that's OT.

<edit> also throw use strict; in at the top of your script, it will help you become more efficient in your development (at least I think so)<edit>

anyhow hope that's what fixes it for you...
