Re: Spreadsheet::WriteExcel: How to change order of worksheets?

Do you know the names of the workbooks in advance so you can sort on that? You can store your worksheets in a hash so you can reference them properly later to addataand so on.

my %worksheets;
foreach my $w (sort @ws_names_from somewhere){
   $worksheets{$w} = $workbook->add_worksheet( $w );
}

I think this may be the simplest approach. Actually, I need to parse through some of the names to avoid creating inappropriate sheets (the data gets dirty and I end up with strange sheet names like "null") sometimes. Using your hash would allow this better. Thanks. -- Zeno - Barcelona Perl Mongers http://barcelona.pm.org http://www.javajunkies.org	[reply]

Hmmm... Was anyone else wondering what this spreadsheet was about as they read "avoid creating inappropriate sheets (the data gets dirty"? I started thinking he was cataloguing "P&L of movies by classification" and had to suppress X-rated titles. Too bad the rest of the sentence took all the fun out of it... :) Mike	[reply]
