Hi, I am trying to use the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module to create an excel file. I have a data which I want to write into a single text box, it contains "abc\n dsfg \n rsg" When I write it in the excel sheet, it shows without the newline characters; only when I double click on the particular element, does it place the newline characters. Is there a work around? Thank you, Anant EDIT: Please delete this post, I figured it out. Made use of folowing which made it work:- my $format = $workbook->add_format(); $format->set_text_wrap() ;
