The example i'm asking about does contains loop structures, and i'm trying to parse out the array element by element into excel, 1 element per cell.

Here's the code formatted correctly:

foreach my $line (@$array) { for (my $row = 0; $row < (scalar(@$array)+1); $row++) { foreach my $element (@$line) { for (my $col = 0; $col < scalar(@$line); $col++) { $sheet -> Cells(($row+10),($col+1)) -> {Value} = @$element[$co +l]; } } } }

The array to be passed contains 6 lines (arrays) of 3 elements each. I want to loop through the lines, parsing out each array into excel in turn. I *am* a beginner (I looked at Perl for the first time last week) so I apologize if this is a simplistic question, but would appreciate any useful insights into this as i've been unable to make this script work so far.

Thanks, Joe
