Read Using Win32::OLE and Excel - Tips and Tricks. You will need to learn about Excel. This site is not centered about Excel, but Microsoft has very good documentation on Excel online.	[reply]

You should look at Excel::Writer::XLSX. I use it for all of my Excel writing needs. Unless you need Excel to process information in a formula as part of your work, this is a much better method...	[reply]
