Thank you CountZero!

The following --portion of script-- is copying from one sheet and pasting to another to prepare for print. Everything works beautifully except for the line "$Excel->Application->CutCopyMode = False;".

I have tried writing the line several different ways and I have searched google and multiple other sights for ideas.

Opening of script is: 

use Win32::OLE qw(in with);
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Excel';
use warnings;

#Content-Type: text/html;

$Win32::OLE::Warn = 3;    # die on errors...

# get already active Excel application or open new
$Excel = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('Excel.Application')
    || Win32::OLE->new('Excel.Application', 'Quit');  

# open Excel file
$Book = $Excel->Workbooks->Open("c:/users/david/desktop/RBLCopy.xls");

The following is the portion of script containing the line in question. 
# print routine ################
print "\nPrint (y/n) ";
chomp($input = <STDIN>);
if ($input eq 'y') {
    $lSheet = $Book->Worksheets("Location");
    $iSheet = $Book->Worksheets("Input");
    $oSheet = $Book->Worksheets("Output");
    
    # Clear Input screen
    $iSheet->Activate();
    if ($iSheet->Range("C4")->{Value} ne '') {
        $iSheet->Range("C4:J10000")->ClearContents();
    }
        
    # Move Location data to Input Screen
    $lSheet->Activate();
    $lSheet->Range("A5:A10000")->Copy();
        $iSheet->Activate();
        $iSheet->Range("C4")->Select();
        $iSheet->Paste();
    $lSheet->Activate();
    $lSheet->Range("L5:L10000")->Copy();

            $iSheet->Range("C4")->Select();
