The following peice of code works up to an extent. It does not copy the format of the original file.
use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel; use Spreadsheet::BasicRead; my $ReportName = $ScriptDir . "\\TR" . ".xls"; my $tlfile= "D:\\Logs\\TL.xls"; my $WorkBook = Spreadsheet::WriteExcel->new($ReportName); my $TL = new Spreadsheet::BasicRead($tlfile) || die "Could not open '$ +tlfile': $!"; while ($TL->getNextSheet()) { my $SheetName = $TL->currentSheetName(); $TL->setRow(0); if ($SheetName eq "SUMMARY") { next; } else { my $Sheet = $WorkBook->add_worksheet($SheetName); my $firstrow = $TL->getFirstRow(); $Sheet->write_row(0, 0, $firstrow); my $col = 0; while (my $nextrow = $TL->getNextRow()) { my $row = $TL->getRowNumber(); print "ROW: $row\n"; $Sheet->write_row($row, 0, $nextrow); } } }
I have not been able to read formats from the original file.
Can you please help?
Thank you.
