I don't use Windows, so this script is untested:
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Win32::OLE;
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Excel';
use Win32::OLE::Variant;

my $exlM = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('Excel.Application')
  || Win32::OLE->new( 'Excel.Application', sub { $_[0]->Quit; } )
  or die "Can't attach to excel";
$exlM->{'Visible'} = 1;
$exlM->{DisplayAlerts} = 0;
my $workbook = $exl->Workbooks->open('D:/Perl/view_dataM');
my $sheet    = $workbook->Worksheets(1);

$sheet->cells( $a, 4 )->{Value} = "Value";
$workbook->SaveAs(
    {
        Filename   => 'D:/Perl/view_dataM',
        FileFormat => xlWorkbookNormal
    }
);
$workbook->Close();
$exlM->Quit();
