    Is there any other module to achieve this task?

      If you are running on windows, You might be able to do it by running MS Excel, and automate the process using a module like Win32::OLE

      You'll have to do the research yourself and put some effort to accomplish what you want.

        Sorry to say that, we have been running Win32::OLE in windows OS, Now we are switch over to linux OS.
