Could someone please help me with inserting page breaks in Microsoft Excel? I want to insert a page break at row 6. Here is my code so far:
use warnings;
use strict;
use OLE;
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Excel';
my $excel = CreateObject OLE 'Excel.Application';
my $workbook = $excel -> Workbooks -> Add;
my $sheet = $workbook -> Worksheets("Sheet1");
$sheet -> Activate();
$sheet -> Range("6:6") -> Activate();
$sheet -> HPPageBreaks -> Add();
The problem is the last line. I receieve the error message "Can't call method 'HPPageBreaks' on an undefined value." Now, the VB code to do this is:
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.HPageBreaks.Add Before:=ActiveCell
I don't know how to translate this. How do I define "ActiveWindow" and "SelectedSheets?" What parameters do I give "Add()?" I'm sorry if my questions are being phrased incorrectly. I am fairly new to Perl. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
