I have a question regarding the repeat_formula function... I have a formula that looks like this: =(12*1)+MONTH(L$39-1)-MONTH($A41)+1 where that first (12*1) could be a (12*2) or (12*3) and is a number I calculate as I pump rows. Is there a way to substitute a number via repeat_formula and not a proper cell reference?
my $formula1 = $ws->store_formula('=(12*A91)+MONTH(L$39-1)-MONTH(A92)+ +1');
A91 and A92 are the tokens I will be replacing. $diff is a result of a calculation and can change such as $diff=1 or $diff=2 etc...
$ws->repeat_formula($row, $col, $formula1, $fmt->{'number'}, qw/^A91$/, $diff, qw/^A92$/, '$A' . $current_row );
Substituting the A92 token works perfectly but sticking in $diff where A91 resides is not working, what gets in there is IV65536 instead. Thanks
