Hello World!\n

Can anyone help me to do what this excel macro does, but from perl, please?

I have tried this, but it doesn't seem to do anything:

my $range = "A1:C49";
my $sheet = $workbook -> Worksheets("Graph");
$sheet -> Activate();
my $chart = $sheet -> ChartObjects("Chart 1");
$chart -> Activate();
# $chart -> SeriesCollection(1)->Select();
$chart->SetSourceData({Source => $sheet, Range => $range, PlotBy => xl
+Columns});

If I remove the commented line, I get: Can't call method "Select" on an undefined value at...

Sub Macro1()
'

'
    Sheets("Graph").Select
    ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 1").Activate
    ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Select
    ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("Data").Range("A1:C49"), 
+PlotBy:= _
        xlColumns
End Sub

Thanks.
