Im trying to open excel sheet which is placed along with the perl script using getcwd...the perl script and the excel sheet can be kept at any place...

#use strict; use Win32::OLE qw(in with); use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Excel'; use vars qw ( $OUT_Var); $Win32::OLE::Warn = 3; # Die on Errors. $OUT_Var = getcwd."\\"."Check.xls"; $OUT_Var =~ s/\//\\/g; #my $excelfile = $OUT_Var; #my $Excel = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('Excel.Application') || Win32::OLE->new('Excel.Application', 'Quit') || die Win32::OLE->LastError(); $Excel->{DisplayAlerts}=0; my $Book = $Excel->Workbooks->Open($OUT_Var) or die my $Book = $Excel->Workbooks->Add() or die Win32::OLE->LastError(); $Excel->{Visible} = 1;

but im getting error either that workbook value is not defined or Method property get OPEN
