I have code that is using Spreadsheet::WriteExcel here is a snippit.. 

sub populateExcelRows { my $workbook = Spreadsheet::WriteExcel->new("t
+est9.xls");
my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();
my $j = 0;

#Declare Headings for row 0 and the 6 Columns

   $worksheet->write(0,0 , 'Equipment Model');
   $worksheet->write(0,1, 'Devices Per Model');
   $worksheet->write(0,2, 'Devices Per Variant');
   $worksheet->write(0,3, 'Model Variant Processor');
   $worksheet->write(0,4 , 'Device Memory');
   $worksheet->write(0,5 , 'Device Software');

   #Loop through Global Array called Models to determine the number of
+ rows to place data

  print "Model is $#model\n";
  for ($j = 1; $j <= $#model; $j++)  {
   
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,0, $model[$j]);
   if ($j == 0) {
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,1, $devicePerModel);
                }
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,2, $devicesPerVariant[$j]);
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,3, $processor[$j]);
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,4, $memory[$j]);
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,5, $softwareVersion[$j]);
   $rowCounter++;
        }

   $workbook->close();
}

the following section using eg $worksheet->write(0,0 , 'Equipment Model');
writes a column headings this is OK then when i use eg - 

  for ($j = 1; $j <= $#model; $j++)  {
   
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,0, $model[$j]);
   if ($j == 0) {
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,1, $devicePerModel);
                }
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,2, $devicesPerVariant[$j]);
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,3, $processor[$j]);
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,4, $memory[$j]);
   $worksheet->write($rowCounter,5, $softwareVersion[$j]);
   $rowCounter++;
        }

   $workbook->close();
}

this does only places data into the very last rows and leaves the 20 something rows all blank i know that the loop is accessing the data that should go into the spreadsheet by way of seeing it on the screen using a debug like #print "row is $rowCounter, $model[$j], $devicesPerVariant[$j], $processor[$j], $memory[$j], $softwareVersion[$j]\n";
the spreadsheet which i can send are all blank bar the first column headings and the very last row

Edit: g0n - replaced code tag on each line with blocks

In reply to problem using perl module Spreadsheet::WriteExcel cannot get data into rows when using for loop on a list to populate rows by adamlee14
