Re^2: Joininig excel columns from many files

Fortunatelly i am currently working as well, so maybe you should think that i am busy working to something else... And i am very greatfull that peoples are trying to help here, thank you all for the quick solutions that you bother gave me :) To respond to our colegue's question, i usually write a script that will be OK for 20 lines as well as for 2 billions of lines, so i was thinking i will use threads to split the file in. As a quick solution, indeed i will export the file into a csv format and just the task to be done quick, but i ll want to "beatify" the script as i mentioned earlier. I think the solutions are more than enough, so i ll stop here... Cheers, to all!

Had time this weekend, to "meditate" on it... The implementation was without external module, but with a "big" - hash of arrays, that i parsed it later on... It was in a way funny in the end, because i forgot to set the IFS to \r\n, reading from win files :) but finally thought of it... Any way i found a nice module: Spreadsheet::ExcelHashTable that is parsing the excel files straight into the hash... Thanks to all! Proud to be a part of this community.	[reply]
