I am new to Perl and hope where is the right place to post.
What I want is simply update Excel file. The following code is by jmcnamara.
Source was this link: 
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -wT
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

use strict;
use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel;
use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser;


my $parser   = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel->new();
my $workbookR = $parser->parse('file2.xls');

my $worksheetR = $workbookR->worksheet(0);

my ( $row_min, $row_max ) = $worksheetR->row_range();
my ( $col_min, $col_max ) = $worksheetR->col_range();

print "row min:$row_min row_max:$row_max col_max:$col_max\n\n";



    # Open the template with SaveParser
    my $parser2   = new Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser;
    my $template = $parser2->Parse('file2.xls');

    my $sheet    = 0;
    my $row      = 0;
    my $col      = 0;


    # Get the format from the cell
    my $format   = $template->{Worksheet}[$sheet]
                            ->{Cells}[$row][$col]
                            ->{FormatNo};

my $workbook;
    {
        # SaveAs generates a lot of harmless warnings about unset
        # Worksheet properties. You can ignore them if you wish.
        local $^W = 0;
# Rewrite the file or save as a new file
$workbook = $template->SaveAs('file2.xls');
                
    }

# Use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel methods
    my $worksheet  = $workbook->sheets(0);

if($row_max == -1){
for my $i (0..4){
$worksheet->write(0, $i, "A$i", $format);
}}

for my $i (0..$col_max){
$worksheet->write($row_max+1, $i, "B$i", $format);  # not work
}

$workbookR->close();
$workbook->close();
