Hi, Streen

Can I add a macro using Win32::OLE

I think this is what you mean: can I add a VB Macro into a Workbook using Perl... the answer is yes...

I have not coded it in Perl but you can do it in VBA so it should work.

Sub Test_VBComponent_Collection()
    Dim B As Workbook
    Set B = ThisWorkbook

    'Iterate over the VBProjects available in the VBA (VB editor)
    'There is probable only one! VBProjects(0)
    For Each proj In B.Application.VBE.VBProjects
        MsgBox proj.Name
        MsgBox proj.VBComponents.Count
        For Each comp In proj.vbcomponents
                'Check Properties etc
            comp.Add (vbext_ct_ClassModule)

    Next
    
    Next
End Sub

The VBComponent Object is documented in the help for Excel VBA (although you have to get there via VBAProject/See Also). It has some properties you'll find useful including CodeModule which is very poorly documented but is probably the thing you want to stick the text in...

Update: http://www.google.com/microsoft?q=CodeModule+Excel+VBA has some good links...
