Using Perl I am able to read/write from/to the excel file. however i am not able to find a way to 'insert' the row/column in an excel file. using $Sheet->Range("C$i")->{Value} = "OK"; code i can write to the cell. What i would like to do is to insert one or more than 1 row between the rows. how do i do this? how do i insert columns between two existing columns?
